According to the AXIOS website, two Israeli officials said that the new head of the Egyptian Intelligence Service proposed an idea about “small” hostages and a cease-fire agreement in Gaza to the Israeli National Security Service Director, which could start negotiations on a broader agreement. On Sunday, Egypt's new intelligence chief, Hassan Rashad, met with Israel's National Security Service Director Ronen Bar in Cairo. A source with knowledge of the meeting said Bar told Rashad that after the murder of Sinwar, there was an opportunity to renegotiate the hostages and the cease-fire agreement, and emphasized Egypt's key role in this effort. According to Israeli officials, Egypt proposed starting with a “small agreement”, which included the release of a few hostages held by Hamas in exchange for a few days of cease-fire in Gaza. And after this “small agreement,” a new round of negotiations will continue on a more comprehensive hostage and cease-fire agreement.
