After several weeks of negotiations with the mediation of Qatar and the involvement of the United States, Israel and Hamas reached an agreement for the release of 50 hostages during 4 days, during which there will be a pause in the fighting.
If successful, this would be the first ceasefire since the start of the war and would see the release of 50 women and children held hostage by Israel in exchange for 150 Palestinians held in Israeli prisons.
Tel Aviv released a list of 300 people who could be released, and most of them are men. The news was greeted with joy, but also concern among the families of the hostages in Israel, who ask what will be done with the people who will continue to remain in the hands of Hamas...
There are 40 children inside Gaza and they will release only 30. What will happen to the rest? Israel announced that the pause in fighting could last more than 4 days, and that for every 10 hostages released beyond the agreed 50, the pause would be extended by one day.
However, Tel Aviv insists that this is not the end of the war, which will continue until all hostages are returned home and Hamas is eliminated.
“There is so much nonsense being said out there; that we will stop the fight for the release of hostages. Therefore, I want to clarify that the struggle will continue until we achieve all our goals. Qatar, which brokered the deal, said that a large number of trucks with food, medical and fuel aid will be allowed into Gaza, civilians face a humanitarian disaster," said Banyamin Netanyahu.
It is still not clear when the pause in the fighting will begin, but according to Qatar, this will be announced in the next 24 hours. The Israel Defense Forces announced that the operation, air, land and sea, continues, while new bombings were reported in Gaza. (A2 Televizion)
