Egypt and Islamic Jihad are “in contact” regarding a new prisoner agreement.
According to the Lebanese newspaper Al-Akhbar, Abbas Kamel, Egypt's minister of intelligence, has contacted the leaders of Islamic Jihad and Hamas to explore resuming talks on a prisoner exchange agreement with Israel. Kamel asked the two sides to "urgently" send a delegation to Egypt, according to Al-Akhbar. The US had previously asked Qatar to exert pressure on Hamas to accept a gradual exchange arrangement, but the political leadership of Hamas rejected that request, the newspaper claimed. "Communication also took place with the Qatari side." An Israeli security delegation presented Kamel with their "modified proposal from the previous ones" earlier this week, according to Al-Akhbar, which included "new provisions related to truces, aid, and the exchange mechanism."

Following a COVID-19 halt, the Black Nazarene monument is surrounded by sizable throngs of Filipino Catholics.
In one of the largest religious devotional events in history, hundreds of thousands of Catholic devotees flocked to a historic statue of Jesus Christ on Tuesday, turning the capital of the Philippines into a sea of maroon. Before dawn, there were tumultuous scenes as the frenetic march began, following an outdoor mass for the so-called Black Nazarene statue at a Manila beachfront park.
