Egypt has proposed a new ceasefire initiative for Gaza focusing on the release of hostages and resumption of humanitarian aid, amidst ongoing Israeli strikes and rising casualties in the region.

Egypt has submitted fresh proposals aimed at reinstating the ceasefire in Gaza. These proposals seek the release of six hostages and the remains of others held by Hamas. In return, negotiations to end the ongoing war and resume humanitarian assistance to Gaza are included. Aid deliveries had been halted by Israel, which also ceased the supply of electricity earlier in the month.

Egypt’s new proposals focus on achieving a ceasefire in Gaza while ensuring the release of hostages and resumption of humanitarian aid. The plan is still under consideration by both Hamas and Israel. Recent airstrikes have heightened the urgency of these negotiations amidst rising casualties and humanitarian crises in the region.
