Hamas confirms new Gaza ceasefire talks with Israel in Qatar on Saturday

CAIRO, May 17 (Reuters) - A new round of Gaza ceasefire negotiations between Hamas and Israel is underway in Qatar's Doha, Hamas official Taher al-Nono told Reuters on Saturday.

He said the two sides were discussing all issues without "pre-conditions".

Nono said Hamas was "keen to exert all the effort needed" to help mediators make the negotiations a success, adding there was "no certain offer on the table".

They weren't in Doha 24 hours ago. And they refused to negotiate 24 hours ago. And they had a whole bunch of pre-conditions 24 hours ago.

I wonder what changed their minds in the past 24 hours.

A sudden humanitarian urge to protect Gazan civilians from being "martyred"? Where was it for the past year and a half? Where was it when they wer hiding in the tunnels under schools, hospitals and apartment buildings?
