I think this is very much the mediators from the Palestinian and the Arab side, one could say, trying to put across their sense of elements of the Trump US administration peace plan not being fulfilled from the Israeli side.
We've heard from the US side and the Israeli side that Hamas is breaching the violations.
They haven't returned all the hostages, as you were saying, a very slow process.
This was Qatar and Egypt saying that Israel is essentially not honouring this.
They have to withdraw.
in the next phase of a ceasefire.
There's no sign of that at the moment, much further than they have.
They're still in control of more than 50% of the territory.
There's no sign at the moment that's going to change.

So there's that and also the urgencies, as you were saying, of this international stabilisation force getting in.
