In an interview with CNN, Hirsch explained that this could only happen under one condition: "If all 101 hostages are in our hands alongside a complete demilitarization of Gaza, I believe we would agree to facilitate Sinwar’s exile and that of anyone he wishes to accompany him to another destination."
Hirsch also addressed the American efforts to secure a hostage release agreement, expressing gratitude to American officials for their around-the-clock work with Israel. He noted the obvious fact that the reason a deal has not been reached is due to Hamas leader Yehya Sinwar's refusal to come to terms with Israel.
