CAIRO (AP) — Key mediator Egypt is expressing skepticism about the proposal meant to bridge gaps in cease-fire talks between Israel and Hamas. More details about the proposal have emerged a day before negotiations are expected to resume in Cairo. The challenges around the so-called bridging proposal appear to undermine the optimism for an imminent agreement that U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken carried into his latest Mideast visit this week. The White House says President Joe Biden spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday, with no immediate details on what was said.
