Cairo - Reuters. Envoys from the 'Peace Council', led by US President Donald Trump, met with representatives of Hamas movement in Cairo in an attempt to maintain the ceasefire in Gaza, which has been under great pressure since the United States and Israel began bombing Iran, three sources told 'Reuters'. One source said they believe Israel's announcement was a direct result of the meeting between Hamas and the 'Peace Council'. The meeting, held at the beginning of the week, is the first such publicly announced meeting since the start of the war. Following the meeting, Israel announced on Sunday that it will soon reopen the Rafah crossing between Gaza and Egypt, which has been closed since the start of the bombing campaign against Iran.
