Hamas said its chief, Ismail Haniya, arrived in Cairo to hold talks on the ongoing Israeli onslaught on Gaza.
In a statement, the Palestinian resistance group said Haniya and his delegation are scheduled to hold talks with Egyptian officials on the political and on-field situation in Gaza.
The talks will also follow efforts to stop the Israeli aggression in Gaza, it added.
Haniya's visit to Cairo comes as Qatari and Egyptian efforts continue with the aim of reaching a prisoner swap deal and a ceasefire in Gaza.
Hamas has repeatedly stated its pre-conditions for a prisoner swap deal are a complete ceasefire, Israeli army withdrawal from the besieged Gaza and rebuilding Gaza.
The death toll from Israel's war on Gaza has jumped to 29,195 since October 7, the Palestinian Health Ministry said.
The Health Ministry made the statement as the Israeli onslaught enters its 137th day.
Another 69,170 people have been injured so far.
In the past 24 hours, the Israeli army atrocities across Gaza left 103 people dead and 142 others injured. "Many people are still trapped under rubble and on the roads, and rescuers can’t reach them," it added.
