CIA Director William Burns, who is also the chief US negotiator on Gaza, said on Saturday that a more detailed ceasefire proposal would be made in the next several days.
The previous proposal put forward by US President Joe Biden in June laid out a three-phase ceasefire in return for the release of Israeli hostages.
The recent war in Gaza started after Hamas militants attacked Israel on Oct 7 killing 1,200 people and taking about 250 hostages, according to Israeli tallies. Israel’s offensive has thus far killed at least 41,084 Palestinians and wounded 95,029 others, the Gaza health ministry says.
