Middle East conflict live updates: Biden says Israel would halt fighting during Ramadan if hostage deal is reached

President Biden said he hopes to see a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas by Monday and that Israel has agreed to halt fighting in Gaza during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan if a hostage-release deal is reached. Israeli officials have not publicly confirmed such an agreement, and a spokesman for the prime minister’s office declined to comment. An Israeli official with knowledge of the negotiations told The Post on Tuesday, “Right now there is no deal.”
