Israel’s Stance on Security and Military Presence:

In a message relayed to the mediators, Israel made it clear that any final agreement will include the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) maintaining a presence along the security perimeter. This will involve expanding the area under Israeli control to ensure the safety of the population and prevent further threats from Gaza.

The Message to Hamas:

Israel's message to Hamas through the intermediaries is stark: “This is your last chance. If you do not release the hostages, hell will break loose, just as President Trump has warned.” The Israeli government is ramping up efforts, including relocating residents, expanding security zones, and imposing a logistical blockade on the Gaza Strip. These efforts are aimed at pushing Hamas into offering a constructive response to the proposal.

Current Situation and Resistance:

Despite the pressure, Hamas has recently rejected the proposal, although Israeli officials remain hopeful that the added measures of security and a more aggressive stance will eventually compel Hamas to reconsider. With the ongoing military strategies and diplomatic efforts, Israel is poised to intensify its demands and potentially escalate the situation further if Hamas does not comply with the proposed terms. The world continues to watch as these critical negotiations unfold.
