Can Egypt convince Israel and Hamas on a temporary truce in Gaza? | DW

Egypt has proposed a two-day truce in Gaza as a prelude to a longer cease-fire. President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi called on Hamas to free four of the Israeli hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners. He proposed more negotiations to follow that release within ten days. Meanwhile, Gaza’s Hamas-run health ministry said Israeli strikes killed at least 45 people, mainly in the north of the strip. UN Chief Antonio Guterres said he was shocked by what he called the “harrowing levels of death, injury and destruction.“ 00:00 Egypt proposes temporary truce in Gaza 02:23 DW speaks with Hans-Jakob Schindler, Middle East security expert and Senior Director at the Counter Extremism Project in Berlin Subscribe: For more news go to: Follow DW on social media: ►Facebook: ►Twitter: ►Instagram:
