TEL AVIV, Israel — U.S. officials are signalling progress on negotiations around a cease-fire agreement between Israel and Hamas, with White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan saying the outlines of a deal have come into shape.
Speaking Sunday on CNN's State of the Union, Sullivan said that representatives from Israel, the U.S., Egypt and Qatar, who met in Paris last week, had come to "an understanding among the four of them about what the basic contours of a hostage deal for temporary cease-fire would look like."
