Egyptian officials blamed a lack of Israeli-American will to end the war, the Hezbollah-affiliated newspaper Al Akhbar reported.
“There is nothing new that can be negotiated” to achieve a ceasefire and hostage deal between Israel and Hamas, an Egyptian official involved in negotiations told Hezbollah-affiliated newspaper Al Akhbar on Saturday.
“There are no more concessions that can be forced on Hamas. The real crisis lies in the lack of Israeli-American will to end the war, ” he added.
Al Akhbar reported that an Egyptian official emphasized that the root of the impasse is a lack of political will from both the US and Israel to end the war, describing Washington’s reliance on Israeli military pressure to shift Hamas’s stance as a “misguided bet.”
