According to the report, a senior Hamas delegation departed Cairo late Saturday following talks with Egyptian officials aimed at brokering a cease-fire agreement and the entry of desperately needed humanitarian aid into Gaza, according to a statement by Hamas. The delegation, led by Chairman of the Hamas Leadership Council Muhammad Darwish, included other key leaders, among them Khaled Meshaal, Khalil al-Hayya, Zaher Jabarin, and Eng. Nizar Awadallah.

The report said that the delegation reviewed the movement’s vision for reaching a comprehensive deal that achieves a ceasefire, prisoner exchange, relief, and reconstruction. It was agreed to exert further efforts and continue communication to ensure the success of these efforts,” Hamas said in the written statement on Saturday. According to the statement, the talks also addressed the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip and “the need for urgent action to deliver aid and supplies to the Strip’s citizens.”

The report also said that the health ministry raised its overall toll from the conflict in Gaza to 52,243, saying it had confirmed the deaths of nearly 700 people reported missing. The death toll includes those killed in the past six weeks of renewed conflict after the collapse of a ceasefire on March 18, as well as more than 16,000 children and 12,000 women who have been killed in the war. The ministry does not differentiate between civilians and militants.

In January, the Israel Defense Forces said it had killed 20,000 Hamas operatives since October 7.
