Ceasefire and hostage issues in focus

Amid this military activity, Israel's Defense Minister Israel Katz said the country currently feels "closer to a ceasefire" than ever before. This comment was made, among other things, during an internal meeting in which he discussed the progress in negotiations for a possible ceasefire and the handover of hostages. The talks, supported by U.S. officials and mediators from Qatar and Egypt, aim to reach an agreement that could include a temporary military presence by Israeli troops in Gaza after the fighting. Katz reiterated that Israel will maintain control of Gaza even after the violence ends nbcnews.com reports.
