Israeli officials addressed the negotiations in Qatar regarding a hostage deal, stating that no progress has been made and talks have reached a deadlock. 'There is no substantial progress, but contacts continue,' they reported. They added that 'the Israeli delegation remains in Qatar with no decision to return home, while Hamas remains entrenched in its position and refuses to accept the original Wendy Vitkin framework.' Meanwhile, the Security Cabinet will convene this coming Sunday at 16:00.
