Israel's Security Chief Leaves Doha After Ceasefire Talks

Protesters call for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war during rallies across the U.S.

Israel's head of Security Services, David Barnea, has departed from Doha following discussions with Qatari and Egyptian officials regarding a potential ceasefire in Gaza.

The Qatari Foreign Ministry spokesperson announced during a news conference in Doha that the latest round of talks has concluded, with plans for further discussions at a lower level. It is anticipated that Israel will present a counterproposal to Hamas in the near future.

Qataris and Egyptians have been playing key roles as mediators with Hamas, facilitating communication and negotiation efforts.

Israel's Prime Minister's Office declined to provide any comments on Barnea's departure, maintaining a reserved stance on the ongoing diplomatic efforts.

The discussions in Doha mark a significant step in the efforts to reach a potential ceasefire agreement in Gaza, amidst the recent escalation of tensions in the region.
