Tel Aviv: Israel has reportedly agreed to a phased ceasefire in Gaza. In the first phase, the decision was to release 4,000 Palestinian prisoners instead of 35-40 Israeli hostages, Israeli media reported, citing anonymous sources. However, no official decision has come out in this regard.
According to the report, Israel is ready for a 45-day ceasefire in the first phase. If Hamas releases one hostage, it will release 100 Palestinian prisoners in exchange. According to this, instead of about 40 hostages, about 4,000 Palestinians will return to their homeland. The decision regarding the second phase will be finalized through discussion in the last days of this. At this point, Israel is demanding the release of Israeli soldiers and male hostages held by Hamas in exchange for thousands of Palestinian prisoners. According to the media, Israel is demanding the handover of the bodies of the Israeli soldiers who were killed in the third phase.
Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that the Israeli army will not withdraw from Gaza. Israel TV reported that Netanyahu said that thousands of Palestinian security prisoners will not be released. “We will not end this war without achieving the goals of eliminating Hamas, returning all hostages, and ensuring that Gaza is no longer a threat to Israel,” Netanyahu said.
