Qatar's leader said they had "made progress" in talks to free hostages held by Hamas following the militant group's deadly attack in Israel last month.
In a joint press conference with the chief diplomat of the European Union, Joseph Borrell, in Doha, he said that the agreement is going through ups and downs from time to time, but added that very soon there could be a concretization.
" The key points of the negotiations at this stage are more practical, logistical, but still do not represent the essence of the agreement. It is a long way to get closer to the goal, but the level of confidence is increasing and we hope that we are getting there point until the conditions are accepted.
The deal has been going through ups and downs from time to time over the past few weeks, but I'm more than confident that we're close enough to a deal that can get people back to their homes. We have been focused these past five weeks on reaching negotiations, we have tried all possible ways to ensure that civilians are released and we think that all human beings are the same," said Sheikh Mohammed Bin Abdulrahman al- Thani, who has mediated negotiations between Hamas and Israel.
Pressure is also mounting on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to reach a deal for the safe return of some 240 people kidnapped by Hamas on October 7, when at least 1,200 people were killed.
On Saturday, the Israeli leader denied reports that Israel was considering a proposal to release at least 50 abductees, saying that when the government had something new to announce, they would report it.
