The White House on Thursday urged all sides to participate in Gaza ceasefire talks in Doha, emphasizing the need for Israel and Hamas to make compromises for a deal to be implemented. According to officials, progress remains possible in the coming days.

Speaking in an interview with CNN, White House national security spokesman John Kirby revealed that information indicates Iran has not retracted its threat to attack Israel, potentially through proxy forces.
