# A Hamas delegation departed for Cairo to discuss new ideas aimed at securing a ceasefire in Gaza, as Israeli air strikes killed 26 people across the territory today. The renewed effort follows Hamas’s rejection last week of Israel’s latest proposal to secure the release of hostages still held in Gaza. Talks have so far failed to produce any breakthrough since Israel resumed its air and ground assault on Gaza from 18 March, ending a two-month ceasefire.
