This week, US President Donald Trump demands that an agreement on the ceasefire between Hamas in the Gaza Strip and Israel be concluded. Both sides, so they report that The times of Israel As for the sources that take part in negotiations in Doha in Qatar, they are informed about this period. But what can such a deal look like?
What is still known: the ceasefire should be initially agreed for sixty days. Half of the owners remaining in the gas sector should be released during this period – eight on the first day, two on the fifty day. Of the 27 dead hostages, 5 should be transferred on the seventh day of the ceasefire, five more at half the time and eight on the last day. According to the message New York Times If this is part of the transaction, which – unlike the previous time – Hamas does not prevent any ceremonies to convey hostages or corpses.
But the main problem, which the last ceasefire of spring failed, continues to exist: Israel requires a temporary ceasefire, Hamas is at the end of the war. According to the proposal for a transaction that is currently located on the table, an extension should be possible – if both parties work on negotiations on tables on a long decision with seriousness.
This resembles the last proposal of this kind in January: at that time, Israel unilaterally completed the agreement at the second stage – at the negotiations at the end of the war. This is exactly what Hamas wants to avoid this time. And according to one of The times of Israel Quoted Arab diplomats is the “biggest problem” – and it is unclear whether it is possible to find a compromise.
Hamas wants the UN to return
According to reports of the media, there are two other possible breaks in the negotiations: Hamas requires that the distribution of goods of assistance through the funded and established mechanisms of the United Nations would again be distributed. Currently, it is unlikely that there are any supply of assistance in gas, it is mainly distributed through the gas the Humanitrian fund (GHF). There is a lot of criticism, including because Israeli soldiers repeatedly shoot Palestinians on the way to distribution stations, according to various media.
And since the centers are in areas that are called to evacuation, the distribution there should be extremely randomly, and distributed goods should not comply with the standards of humanitarian aid in their compilation. According to Katarish Zeytung Al-Arabi al-Jidid There is progress in this regard. So far there is no more detailed information.
The second point of sticking: Hamas calls for Israel to remove its ground troops in positions, which were held before the end of the ceasefire in March. Among other things, the Israeli military responded largely from the corridor of Nitsarim, who separates the north and south of the gas.
According to the Israeli media, the military in this ceasefire is especially important for Moraga’s corridor. This passes between the southern city of Rafach and Chan Unis, which is the north. How far no conversations are known. Nevertheless, the representative of the Kataria Ministry of Foreign Affairs Majed al-Ansari said: Negotiations “need time”, it is currently impossible to “refrain from the time scale”.
Warehouse in ruins
One of the reasons why the Israeli military corridors Moraga can be important is the plans that the Minister of Defense of Israel Katz announced on Monday: the “humanitarian city” should be built on the Ruin Rafach; 600,000 Palestinians who are currently in the Al-Mavasi area in Sudgaz, which is not very populated before the war, and were used there, which will be moved there. Before that, they must be “tested” to avoid the fact that the members of Hamas are among them.
It is not allowed to leave them to leave them in this “humanitarian city”. Katz continued: ultimately, the entire civilian population of the gas sector, about two million people should be collected there. These are not Israeli military who should take care of him, but “international organizations”. It seems unrealistic that – in addition to the perhaps gas -humanitarian fund (GAF) – will take care of the support of the camps.
Earlier, the Reuters news agency reported that it was able to see a proposal about displaced camps called “humanitarian transit zones”. The GHF logo was found in the document. They say that the document was since February, and the Trump administration was submitted. Reuters could not determine if this plan is in handling and whether it works. GHF himself said that the document did not come from him.
Reuters was also able to see the presentation. This should be: “humanitarian zones of transit” should “gain confidence in the local population” and ensure “vision of a gas series” from Trump. This “vision” provides that Palestinians move from the gas sector under pressure.
