Hamas continues to consider ceasefire negotiations, Israeli official says. Qatar and other mediators appear to be proposing to Hamas the gradual release of hostages following a cessation of fighting.

It is unclear whether an agreement will be reached. There is no situation. The Israeli military continued its operations in southern Khan Yunis and other areas on the 2nd, and health authorities in the Gaza Strip announced that 112 people had been killed in Israeli attacks in the past 24 hours, bringing the death toll to 27,131.
