Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh is set to visit Egypt on Wednesday to discuss a ceasefire in Gaza as well as a prisoner exchange with Israel, AFP reported.
According to AFP’s report on Tuesday, Haniyeh will head a “high-level” Hamas delegation to Egypt, to hold talks with Egypt’s intelligence chief Abbas Kamel and others.
They will discuss “stopping the aggression and the war to prepare an agreement for the release of prisoners (and) the end of the siege imposed on the Gaza Strip.”
According to a Hamas source telling AFP, the talks in Egypt will mainly address “the delivery of humanitarian aid, the withdrawal of the Israeli army from the Gaza Strip and the return of displaced persons to their towns and villages in the north.”
This visit will be Hanaiyeh’s second to Egypt since the beginning of the attacks on October 7, with the first being in early November.
