Exios, citing two sources with knowledge of the contacts, said that the talks between the US government and Hamas were about the release of American hostages in Gaza and a broader agreement to end the war.

 Sources told the US media that the talks were held in Doha during the past weeks under the leadership of the US President's special envoy, Adam Buehler.

 US media say that this contact is unusual in that the US has never directly contacted Hamas before. Keep in mind that the United States declared Hamas a terrorist organization in 1997.

 According to sources, the Trump administration consulted with Israel regarding direct talks with Hamas, but Israel learned the details of the talks from other sources.

 According to the American media, the negotiations mainly discussed the release of the American citizens held hostage by Hamas, but the release of all the hostages and the possibility of a long-term ceasefire were also discussed, but no final agreement was reached.
