U.S. President Donald Trump has put forward a proposal for a 60-day ceasefire, intensifying efforts to secure an end to the conflict in Gaza. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to visit the White House next week to discuss the potential agreement. France24 correspondent Noga Tarnopolsky reports from Jerusalem.

Hamas and Israel staked out their positions ahead of expected talks on a Washington-backed ceasefire proposal.

The deal comes more than 20 months into the conflict -- and more than three months after a previous deal ended.
