A Gaza ceasefire and hostage release deal "now is in sight," the US envoy to the United Nations has told the Security Council, urging members to press Palestinian militant group Hamas to accept a bridging proposal agreed to by Israel.

US Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield said a bridging proposal put forward last week by the US, Qatar and Egypt was consistent with a plan outlined by President Joe Biden in May and endorsed by the Security Council in June.
