    This is what The Times of Israel is reporting (they are also quoting Axios)
    US knew of mediators’ altered proposal to Hamas, did not inform Israel — report
    https://www.timesofisrael.com/us-knew-of-mediators-altered-proposal-to-hamas-did-not-inform-israel-report/

    An excerpt:
    "Washington was aware of the new proposal presented to Hamas by Arab mediators in recent days but failed to inform Israel about it, triggering intense Israeli disappointment with the US administration and suspicion regarding its role as a mediator moving forward, according to a Tuesday report.

    Citing Israeli officials, Axios reported that Jerusalem was caught by surprise when Hamas suddenly announced on Monday its acceptance of a ceasefire proposal from Egypt and Qatar.

    The Hamas ceasefire proposal took Israel by “complete surprise,” an Israeli source told The Times of Israel on Tuesday. Israel was not made aware of the document nor did it see its contents until after Hamas made its announcement to the media."
