Hamas leader visits Cairo, a sign talks on another Gaza truce and hostage swap are gathering pace

DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — Hamas’ top leader traveled to Cairo on Wednesday for talks on the war in Gaza, part of a flurry of diplomacy aimed at securing another cease-fire and hostage swap at a moment when the militant group is putting up stiff resistance to Israel’s offensive.
Ismail Haniyeh’s visit came a day after Hamas fired rockets that set off air raid sirens in central Israel, a show of strength during a 10-week war that has devastated much of northern Gaza, killed nearly 20,000 Palestinians, and driven some 1.9 million — nearly 85% of the population — from their homes.
Israel has called on the rest of the world to blacklist Hamas as a terrorist organization, saying it must be eradicated in the wake of its Oct. 7 rampage across southern Israel that triggered the war.

Until the tunnels are destroyed and hostages are freed, there will be no ceasefire. Until Hamas is destroyed, there will be no ceasefire. Until Palestinians can get over the fact that Israel is the ancestral homeland of the Jews, and coexist as they did thousands of years ago, there will be no ceasefire.
The time that Israel would bow to global pressure has passed. They will eliminate Hamas wherever found, and the war will go on until that has happened.
