US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Friday that the ceasefire negotiations in the Gaza Strip face critical issues despite "agreement on 90%" of the terms. The US Secretary of State explained that "90% of the ceasefire agreement in Gaza has been agreed upon, but there are still critical issues." "There are still issues pending in the ceasefire and hostage release negotiations," he added. He stressed that Washington is engaged in active talks "with our partners in Qatar and Egypt to reach a ceasefire agreement in Gaza." The US Secretary of State urged Hamas and Israel to reach a truce agreement in the Gaza Strip. "It is the duty of both parties to reach an agreement on these outstanding issues," Blinken said at a press conference in Haiti, noting that Washington will put more ideas on the negotiating table in the coming days.
