Israel says no ceasefire in place as negotiators head to Egypt to discuss Trump plan

The Israeli government has stated there is no ceasefire in effect in Gaza, only a temporary halt to some bombings, as negotiators head to Egypt for talks. US President Donald Trump warned Hamas of "complete obliteration" if it does not give up power, while also indicating Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu was on board with the US plan. Hamas has said it is ready to release all Israeli captives as part of the proposal. The talks in Egypt are set to be indirect between Israeli and Hamas representatives. Meanwhile, the Palestinian health ministry reported that Israeli attacks have continued, bringing the total death toll since October 2023 to over 67,000.
