Talks on a truce in the Gaza conflict are making progress in Cairo and all parties have agreed on basic points, Egypt's Al-Qahera News state-affiliated TV channel said early on Monday, citing a senior Egyptian source.
Israel and Hamas sent teams to Egypt on Sunday for fresh talks on a potential cease-fire in the six-month conflict, following the arrival on Saturday of U.S. CIA Director William Burns.
There was no immediate comment from Hamas and none of the parties to the Cairo talks has confirmed the Al-Qahera news report.
According to Al-Qahera, the Hamas and Qatar delegations left Cairo and will return within two days to agree on the terms of a final agreement, while the Israel and U.S. delegations will leave within a few hours. It added that consultations will continue in the next 48 hours.
