The head of the CIA came to visit Israel, to discuss the abductee deal - voila! news. Bill Burns met with Mossad head Dedi Barnea and Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu.

Yesterday it was announced that the talks held in Cairo between Israel, the US, Qatar and Egypt on the issue of the abductees ended without a breakthrough. The Americans said that the main gap in the talks that prevents moving to more advanced negotiations was and remains the high number of prisoners that Hamas demands for each Israeli abductee.
