Cairo (Egypt), Mar 1 (LaPresse/AP) – Officials from Israel, Qatar, Egypt and the United States participated in Cairo in negotiations on the second phase of the Gaza truce agreement. Hamas did not participate, but its position was represented by Egyptian and Qatari mediators. Basem Naim, a member of the Hamas political bureau, told Associated Press that there was ‘no progress’. It is unclear whether those mediators would return to Cairo to resume talks today, as planned, and Naim said he had ‘no idea’ when negotiations might resume.
