New talks about an end to the war in Gaza and the release of those being held hostage by Hamas have begun, this time on the Spanish island of Ibiza.

According to Axios, the US special envoy Steve Witkoff and Qatar's Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin al-Thani are participating in the talks.

But Israeli sources tell Axios that "the distance between Israel and Hamas regarding the demands for ending the war is so great that talk of a comprehensive agreement is meaningless right now".

Israeli Ynet reports, with reference to Hamas sources, that the US, Qatar and Egypt are negotiating with Israel for the country not to proceed with plans to occupy Gaza City.
