Hamas proposes release of 10 Israeli captives amid ceasefire talks

Gaza: The Palestinian resistance group Hamas has offered to release 10 Israeli captives in exchange for a permanent ceasefire in Gaza. However, major obstacles still remain on the path to a final agreement.

This offer emerged after four days of indirect negotiations mediated by Qatar.

Hamas emphasized that it is continuing serious negotiations in good faith, but stated that Israel’s “stubbornness” is hindering progress.

Hamas maintained its stance, saying: “We will not lay down our arms, but we desire peace, dignity, and freedom. Israel is sabotaging the agreement by blocking aid.”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, echoing former US President Donald Trump, expressed hope that a deal is possible.

He said, “I believe we are close to an agreement. There are positive prospects.”
