Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) President Ersin Tatar met with UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and Greek Cypriot leader Nikos Christodoulides in New York to discuss the Cyprus issue. Following the meeting, Tatar announced that the next session will involve Türkiye and Greece, broadening the discussions.

Guterres expressed disappointment that no common ground has been found between the two sides despite ongoing efforts. He urged both leaders to bridge their differences and rebuild trust to advance peace talks. While no significant breakthrough occurred, an informal extended meeting is planned, and the two leaders agreed to discuss opening new border crossings in Cyprus.

Tatar emphasized that any negotiation must respect the sovereign equality of Turkish Cypriots, noting that a federal solution is no longer viable. He reiterated that the rights of Turkish Cypriots are rooted in Cyprus’ history and the 1960 agreements.

Palestinians celebrated the ceasefire agreement reached between Israel and Hamas after indirect talks in Egypt, marking the first step of a broader peace plan involving hostage exchanges and Israeli troop withdrawals. Crowds, including children displaced by Israeli attacks, gathered around Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Hospital to celebrate the end of the fighting. Residents in Maghazi Refugee Camp expressed hopes for rebuilding Gaza and establishing a Palestinian state. “Thank God, the war is over. Our homes were destroyed, and our children killed. We thank everyone who helped end this war,” said Yasser Abu Hein. Others shared optimism that Gaza would “return better than before.”

Israel confirmed that the ceasefire would begin following a cabinet vote later in the day.
