Egypt says it plans to present a “comprehensive vision" for the reconstruction of Gaza that does not involve displacing the population, unlike a proposal put forward by US President Donald Trump.
In a statement, Egypt’s foreign ministry said they had an "aspiration" to work with the Trump administration on its plan, but stressed that any foreign intervention should "avoid jeopardising the gains of peace.”
There are fears that the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas could end this weekend after Hamas said it would delay the planned hostage release.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said: “If Hamas does not return our hostages by Saturday noon, the ceasefire will end.”
Netanyahu did not specify whether he was demanding the release of all 76 remaining hostages, or just the three due to be freed this Saturday – but an Israeli minister said he meant "everyone".
Hamas responded by saying it remained committed to the ceasefire deal and that Israel was "responsible for any complications or delays".
