Hamas opens to a ceasefire, Netanyahu rejects the proposal

Hamas opens to a ceasefire, Netanyahu rejects the proposal

Militants ready for prisoner exchange and reconstruction of Gaza. Israel reiterates: the war will only end with disarmament and new security guarantees

Hamas has declared itself ready for a comprehensive ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, which would include an exchange of prisoners for Israeli hostages and an end to the ongoing conflict. According to the Times of Israel, the agreement proposed by the militants would involve the withdrawal of Israeli forces from the entire Strip, the opening of border crossings for the entry of basic necessities and the start of reconstruction of areas devastated by bombing.

Netanyahu’s response

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office rejected the announcement, calling it “propaganda with nothing new”. . In a statement, the Israeli executive reiterated that the war can only end if five conditions are met: the release of all hostages, the disarmament of Hamas, the demilitarisation of the Strip, the maintenance of Israeli security control, and the creation of an alternative civil administration that does not promote terrorism or hostility towards Israel.

Israel’s conditions

According to the Tel Aviv government, only the implementation of these measures will prevent Hamas from rearming and repeating attacks similar to that of 7 October 2023, which Israel cites as the trigger for the current conflict.
