Two sources familiar with the details of the hostage deal negotiations told CNN that the US pressured Israel to give up control over the Morag axis - and conveyed a message to Hamas that "our patience is running out, you must provide an answer soon." According to one source, if this does not happen, some American guarantees "will be at risk." The sources added that Hamas leader Khalil al-Hayya, who is in Qatar and leading the negotiations on behalf of the terrorist organization, said in private conversations that he supports the latest proposal from the mediators - but is still waiting for approval from the leadership in the Gaza Strip.
