"Stalled Hostage Negotiations: Qatari PM Warns of Delicate Phase as Sinwar Mocks Progress"

Hostage negotiations between Hamas and Israel are at a standstill after Hamas rejected a US proposal, leading to a suspension of contacts. The refusal has sparked tensions, with Hamas accusing the US of adopting the Israeli position and the US official criticizing Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar for keeping hostages to maintain the conflict. Families of the hostages are calling for action, with one urging a military intervention to retrieve the hostages from Gaza, while another emphasizes the need to return both living and deceased hostages for burial in Israel.
