Talks to collapse? Israel blames Hamas, says Rafah attack 'soon'

Israeli officials have not travelled to Cairo to take part in indirect diplomacy, but on Sunday Netanyahu reiterated Israel's aim since the start of the war nearly seven months ago: to disarm and dismantle Hamas for good or else endanger Israel's future security. The two sides blamed each other for the impasse and the Hamas delegation said it would leave Cairo truce talks Sunday to consult with its leadership.
