A senior diplomatic source said that "Israel is willing to exhaust the negotiations with Hamas, but their refusal and foot-dragging are creating doubts about Hamas's seriousness. We are approaching a decision point regarding the continuation of negotiations. Hamas is creating an obstacle on the issue of prisoner keys. This is delaying the ceasefire. They insist on not proceeding to discussions on this issue. This prevents us from moving forward." According to him, "At this stage, the delegation remains in Doha. The mediators and the Egyptians are here with us. The moment Hamas opens the way, we can move forward."
