Sources of Hamas They declared that “the hostages represent an important winning card and all will not be released, alive and dead, until there is a clear Israeli position on the end of the war”. According to what reported by Ynetthat cites Reuterssome sources have indicated that, after the comparison with the mediators, further compromise possibilities may emerge to encourage progress. Among these, the exchange of sick or deceased hostages with Palestinian prisoners, the improvement of the conditions of detention or an increase in aid flows to the Gaza strip, including heavy machinery and trailers.
Two officials of the Israeli government also reported that the intention of Jerusalem It would be to extend the first phase of the agreement, providing for the release of three hostages from Hamas every week, in exchange for the release of Palestinian prisoners. Despite the appearances in Israel, few believe in the second phase of the peace agreement given that the distances between Hamas and the Jewish state are practically irreconcilable starting from the fact that Hamas does not intend to leave power and claims that IDF leave the Philadelphia corridor In order to start armoring and threatening Israel who in turn has declared several times that he wants the total destruction of the jihadist group. There are no progress in negotiations for a ceased in Gaza. Israel proposed to extend the truce of another 42 days to allow the liberation of the hostages, but Hamas rejected the offer, asking instead to move to the so -called “phase 2”, which provides for the definitive end of the war. A condition that Israel considers unacceptable.
For this reason according to the American newspaper Washington Free Beacon The Israeli authorities are preparing a new phase of the war in Gaza, with a massive offensive expected within four to six weeks. The plan provides for the sending of tens of thousands of soldiers in a coordinated attack against Hamas. According to internal sources, the chief of staff of the IDF, Eyal Zamir, developed the strategy at the request of the Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Minister of Defense Israel Katz. The operation provides for the largest deployment of troops from the beginning of the conflict: up to 50,000 soldiers will be mobilized. Before the land on the ground, the transfer of the civilian population to safe humanitarian areas is expected to reduce the risk of victims between non -fighters. The stated goal is to hit Hamas and the other armed organizations present in the Gaza Strip.
The Israeli offensive on Gaza It would start with a series of large -scale air attacks, followed by an operation by land. In the new strategic plan, humanitarian aid would be reduced and allowed only in the designated humanitarian areas, with the aim of preventing Hamas from intercepting them and using them to strengthen themselves, as would have happened after the massacre of October 7. The Chief of Staff of the Idf, Eyal Zamir, should present the final details of the plan to the Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu And to the defense minister Yoav Gallant once you enter officer in office, next Thursday. Netanyahu He mentioned the plan during a degree ceremony for a course for officers on Sunday: “We are ready to return to fight intensely at any time. Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich he declared in a conference a Jerusalem: «We are preparing, we are accumulating capacity and when we are ready, we will open the doors of Hell again to Hamas».
In the event that the war resumed, Israel expects to receive greater support from the United States than that received in 2024, when the Biden administration stopped the delivery of weapons and put pressure on Israel to end the war before Hamas’ defeat. The Trump administration has released the weapons held by the Biden Administration and the President of the United States Donald Trump has exerted greater rhetorical pressure on Hamas compared to its predecessor. In his meeting with Netanyahu in Washington at the beginning of this month, Trump told the Israeli premier that “he could have done everything necessary” to return the hostages that Hamas He continues to keep prisoners and definitively remove the Palestinian jihadist threat.
