Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar has emphasised Israel's commitment to supporting a truce deal with Hamas in Gaza. Sa'ar's comments come amid ongoing negotiations aimed at securing a ceasefire and the release of hostages held by Hamas.

"I believe that if we will achieve this hostage deal, we will have a majority in the government that will support the agreement. So, this is the simple answer. I believe, I know, there is a true willingness from our side to reach an agreement.," Sa'ar stated during a press conference in Rome alongside Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani.

The negotiations, facilitated by mediators from Qatar, Egypt, and the United States, have reached an advanced stage. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken indicated that a final proposal is on the table, awaiting Hamas's acceptance.
