Gaza Cease-Fire Deal Is ‘In the Hands of Hamas,’ Biden Says
President Biden said the Israelis had been cooperating in negotiations over a possible six-week cease-fire in Gaza, being mediated by Qatar and Egypt, and that “a rational offer” was made.

We don’t know what — we’ll know a couple of days if it’s going to happen, but we need the cease-fire.
