(32 minutes later)
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office says a new proposal for a Gaza truce and hostage release has been drafted and given to Hamas by negotiators in Cairo. The organisation was founded in 2010 by Michelin-star chef José Andrés. A US-based organisation, it aims to provide meals in the wake of humanitarian crises and national disasters.
"As part of the talks, with the helpful mediation of Egypt, the mediators formulated an up-to-date proposal to be addressed by Hamas," his office says in a statement. In recent years Andrés met with Volodymyr Zelensky during a WCK mission to Ukraine. The organisation has also been present in the aftermath of the Haiti earthquake in 2010, and in Puerto Rico in September 2017 when Hurricane Maria killed thousands.
It adds that Israel expects the mediators to push Hamas harder in order to reach a deal. They charity say they have served 42 million meals over 175 days in Gaza - working out roughly at 240,000 per day.
"The State of Israel is continuing to make all necessary efforts for the release of the hostages from Hamas and their return to Israel," it says. Last month, WCK was part of the first maritime humanitarian aid shipment mission to Gaza - in co-operation with the United Arab Emirates.
The BBC spoke to Andrés about his charity's mission to feed the hungry in Gaza. You can watch what he had to say below.
