Egypt and Qatar are close to reaching a deal to extend the truce in Gaza by two days, Diaa Rashwan, the head of Egypt's State Information Service (SIS), said on Monday, according to a Reuters report.
The two-day extension would include the release of 20 Israeli and 60 Palestinian prisoners, he said.
With the release of 11 Israelis expected on Monday, negotiations remain ongoing for the release of 33 Palestinians, Rashwan added.
