The Hostage Deal

Hamas Announced: Wants 4 More Days of Ceasefire

Hamas informed the Qataris that it is asking for another 4 days of ceasefire in exchange for the return of 40 hostages. Egypt and the US pressured Israel to end the fighting in exchange for a comprehensive hostage deal. The coalition opposes it.

On the sixth day of the ceasefire, Hamas announced that it was interested in four more days of 'Hudna', in exchange for the release of 10 hostages per day. He forwarded the proposal to the Qatari mediators.

As part of the cease-fire agreement that was approved about two weeks ago, and spoke of a four-day cease-fire, the option of continuing non-combat was given in exchange for the release of prisoners every day. Now it appears that Hamas, which has already exercised the option for the first two days, is seeking to extend and fill the quota, thereby releasing 100 Israeli hostages (women and children) in exchange for 300 prisoners imprisoned in Israel (terrorists and minor terrorists).

We will recall that the government's decision established a 10-day framework for a ceasefire and gave an option for 300 names of terrorists who could be released in the current terms of the agreement. So there is no need for a new government decision regarding the extension of the deal between Israel and Hamas.

The ceasefire will become the end of the war

In the meantime, the Egyptians and the Qataris are working together with the US on a new outline for a prolonged cease-fire and possibly a cessation of hostilities in exchange for the release of all the hostages. However, here there are still differences of opinion between Israel and Hamas. According to reports abroad, Hamas divided the captives into 5 categories: Women and children, elderly citizens, Israeli citizens of reserve enlistment age, servicemen and soldiers, and corpses.

Israel is not ready at this stage to release murderous terrorists (what is known as "with blood on the hands" terrorists) and Hamas has already announced that the formula of 3:1, that is, 3 terrorists in exchange for an Israeli citizen, will not be maintained in the case of the soldiers. So the gaps are still big. The IDF very much wants to return to operational activity against Hamas, especially to finish the work in Gaza City, and to continue to the south of the Gaza Strip as well. Voices are heard in the government that the cessation of hostilities will break up the coalition.
