A broadcaster affiliated with Hamas, Al-Aqsa, reported on Sunday that Hamas was still holding consultations on the proposal, a week after it was formulated.
Jake Sullivan, President Biden's national security adviser, told CBS's Face the Nation on Sunday that the ball is in Hamas's court. A deal that would release hostages, pause fighting and allow humanitarian aid to reach Gaza is of paramount importance, he added. We're going to press for it relentlessly, as the president has done, including recently in calls with the leaders of Egypt and Qatar, the two countries that are our central brokers in this effort, Mr. Sullivan said.
