Hamas has replied to Israel's offer for a two-month break in fighting in Gaza.
Hamas sent back a response with some changes they want.
The talks have been going on for a while with people from both sides talking in Qatar.
Israel wants to stop Hamas from being in charge and fighting, but Hamas wants a guarantee that the fighting will stop forever, for Israel to leave Gaza, and for aid to flow freely.
The U.S. is also trying to help by talking to others in Europe.
More than 100 aid groups say that many people in Gaza are starving.
