Egypt proposes 2-day truce in Gaza, release of 4 hostages

Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi has proposed a two-day truce in Gaza and limited hostage exchange aimed at securing “a complete ceasefire” after over a year of Israel-Hamas war. The proposal includes exchanging four Israeli hostages held in Gaza for Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails. This is the first time Abdel Fattah al-Sisi has publicly proposed such a plan.
