Hamas discusses truce and provides list of names of living Israeli captives

There has been a shift on both Hamas and Israel's willingness to secure a truce in Gaza, according to a report in the Washington Post. 

Citing a Hamas official, the report stated that Hamas had indicated it would make concessions to secure a 60-day truce, which would also include an exchange of Palestinian prisoners and Israeli captives. 

Through Egyptian intermediaries, Hamas provided Israel with a list of the names of captives who are still alive. 

A major point of contention however, according to the report, was Hamas' demand that Palestinians be allowed to return to northern Gaza.
