The company saw same-store sales rise by 1.9% worldwide between January and March, below the Wall Street forecast of 2.1%. Increased menu pricing and delivery demand saw same-store sales in the U.S. increase by 2.5%. In international markets, sales fell by 0.2% for the first time since 2020. Despite this, McDonald's said the company's revenue increased 5% to reach $6.17 billion, while net income went up 7% to $1.93 billion, in-line with Wall Street estimates.

Israel-Hamas War: Hamas says delegation heading to Cairo for ceasefire talks | Oneindia News

Hamas announced on Friday its intention to send a delegation to Cairo to discuss a potential hostages-for-truce agreement with Israel. This development coincided with the arrival of US CIA Director William Burns in the Egyptian capital, as reported by Egyptian sources. Egypt, along with Qatar and the United States, has been actively mediating between Israel and Hamas, aiming to broker a ceasefire in the Gaza conflict, which escalated following Hamas's devastating attack on October 7. According to an Egyptian security source, Hamas and CIA representatives are scheduled to meet Egyptian mediators on Saturday.

Hamas expressed its delegation's positive outlook towards the discussions after reviewing the latest truce proposal, affirming its determination to secure an agreement that meets Palestinian demands. While the United States has acknowledged some progress in the negotiations, the CIA declined to comment, adhering to its policy of not disclosing the director's travel details. #IsraelHamasWar #CeasefireTalks #CairoDelegation #RafahAssault #BenjaminNetanyahu #MiddleEastConflict #GazaCrisis #HamasNegotiation #WarInGaza #IsraeliConflict #PalestinianDialogue #InternationalMediation #RegionalSecurity #GlobalDiplomacy #PeaceEfforts ~HT.99~PR.152~ED.155~
