The Israeli Kan TV channel quoted an unnamed political official, whom it described as Al Kabeer, as saying: “If we do not reach a solution with (Hamas), we will proceed with a round of escalation.”

“The talks with the Egyptian delegation reached a dead end, and the mediators became a state of despair,” said Gili Cohen, the channel’s political correspondent.

She added: Hamas is not interested in escalation, but wants to achieve economic achievements.

It is noteworthy, that (Channel 13), it was mentioned earlier, that Israel offered to help Gaza in facing the Corona virus, in exchange for stopping the launching of incendiary missiles and balloons, without giving further details.
