A senior Hamas official says no progress has been made in the latest round of talks on the second phase of the ceasefire between Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas

Hamas said on Saturday that it rejected Israel's "formulation" of extending the first phase of the ceasefire in Gaza, on the day the first stage of the deal was set to expire. The group's spokesperson Hazem Qassem also told Al-Araby TV there were no current talks for a second ceasefire phase in Gaza with the group.

Hamas says it is not willing to extend the first phase of the Gaza ceasefire, rejecting an Israeli request to delay negotiations on the second phase.
