Gaza ceasefire mediators fear breakdown of deal, Egyptian security sources say

CAIRO (Reuters) - Mediators fear a breakdown of the Gaza ceasefire agreement, two Egyptian security sources said on Monday, after Hamas said Israel was not serious about executing the deal and announced it would stop releasing hostages until further notice.

Hamas negotiators said U.S. guarantees for the ceasefire were no longer in place given a plan by President Donald Trump to displace Palestinians from the Gaza Strip, and mediators postponed talks until a clear indication of Washington's intent to continue the phased deal was received.
