Egyptian source: Israelis to be invited back to Cairo for talks on Sunday

A senior Egyptian source said Saturday that Cairo plans to welcome back the Palestinian and Israeli delegations to renew ceasefire talks with Hamas. The source said that the Egyptians are expecting to formally and directly invite the Israelis back to Cairo on Sunday.

 

The source also said that Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas insists that Egypt continue its role as mediator of ceasefire talks. He also said that outside sources had been responsible for taking that role away from Egypt and claimed that this contributed to the collapse of previous talks.
