The President of the United States Donald Trump announced in his social networks that “Israel agreed with the necessary conditions in order to put an end to a high fire in 60 days, during which we will work with all sides in order to put an end to the war.” Nevertheless, the prime minister of Israeli Benjamin Netanyahu in his first statements after the announcement did not say whether he supports his ally or he is open to stop attacks on a series of gas, where he killed more than 57,000 people since October 2023.
“Hamas will no longer be. Hamastan will not be. We are not going to return to this, it ends, ”said the head of the Israeli ultra -Kontsovsky government in statements collected by the local press. “We will free all the hostages, along with the destruction of Hamas. Contrary to what is said, these are not opposite goals, ”he added. Netanyahu referred to criticism of many in Israel, especially the relatives of the hostages, who asked the government to stop the war in order to save those who are still alive in gas after 21 months of the conflict. Of the 50 stolen, which remain in the strip, more than half will be dead.
The Prime Minister did not mention Trump’s proposal on Wednesday, although, according to the Israeli newspaper Haarets Strategic Minister Ron Dermer gave a “positive answer” the US administration.
Trump said that on Tuesday his representatives held a “long and productive meeting with the Israeli over the gas.” “Qatar and the Egyptians, who worked hard to achieve the world, will present this final proposal. I hope that for the benefit of the Middle East, Hamas accepts this agreement because the situation will not improve, but will worsen, ”the president warned.
For its part, the Islamist group stated in their statement that it “acts with a high sense of responsibility” and “holding national consultations to discuss the proposals that we received from our intermediaries.” I indicated that the goal is to achieve an agreement that guarantees the end of the Israeli offensive, the withdrawal of the Jewish Gaza troops and the urgent provision of humanitarian assistance to the population of the Palestinian Enclave.
Hamas’s position has not changed: the final end of the war and the occupation of the strip continue to demand. Meanwhile, Israel still did not want to perform with the cessation of final military operations or with the departure of his Gaza army. The two parties reached a high fire agreement in January last year and were almost two months old, until March 18, when Israel unilaterally broke the pact and resumed their attacks.
Since then, Israel has killed about 6,500 Palestinians, and more than 80% of the territory of Gaza became under its control. In addition, he significantly limited the entrance to humanitarian aid in the strip, where the hunger level is very high, as the UN agencies and other independent organizations report.
