Egyptian Intelligence Chief Hassan Rashad and Turkish Intelligence Chief Ibrahim Kalin met with senior Hamas officials Khaled Mashal, Khalil al-Hayya, and Muhammad Hassan in Cairo, according to a report. The meeting was held to advance the implementation of the Gaza ceasefire.
A report states that Egyptian and Turkish intelligence chiefs met senior Hamas political leaders in Cairo on Tuesday evening to advance the implementation of the Gaza ceasefire.
According to the report, Egyptian General Intelligence Service Director Hassan Rashad and Turkish National Intelligence Organization (MIT) head Ibrahim Kalin met with Hamas figures Khaled Mashal, Khalil al-Hayya, and Muhammad Hassan in the Egyptian capital. The meeting is described as intended to 'promote' the ceasefire implementation.
The report comes amid a broader diplomatic backdrop of Egyptian and Turkish mediation efforts with Hamas, as The Zioneer has previously reported on separate rounds of Cairo and Ankara talks involving the group. The meeting's timing and composition — involving both intelligence chiefs simultaneously with Hamas's top political leadership — suggests a coordinated push by Cairo and Ankara to address outstanding issues in the ceasefire framework.
No further details on the substance of the discussions or any agreements reached have been reported.
