Secret Changes by Egypt Blamed for Collapse of Israel-Hamas Ceasefire Deal

Egyptian intelligence is accused of altering the terms of a ceasefire agreement, causing frustration among international mediators and derailing potential peace efforts.

Egyptian intelligence allegedly altered the terms of a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas, leading to the collapse of negotiations.
The changes reportedly included more of Hamas' demands, which were not communicated to Israel or other mediators like the US and Qatar.
CIA Director Bill Burns and other officials expressed anger and embarrassment over the unexpected alterations.
Hamas had announced a ceasefire agreement on May 6, which was not aligned with what Israel had agreed to.
Egypt denies the allegations, stating their commitment to facilitating peace.
