Answer unacceptable
The answer of the Palestinian Islamist Hamas movement to the American proposal to interrupt the fire in Gaza is unacceptable, said the US special envoy on Saturday Steve Witkoff. Hamas was also rejected by Israel, who, according to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, will continue to strive to return hostages and destroy Hamas, according to foreign agencies. Hamas announced on Saturday that he was ready to release ten live hostages within the agreement, but reiterated that he wanted to reach an agreement involving a permanent interruption of fire, the withdrawal of the Israeli army from the Gaza area and the strengthening of the supply of assistance. The proposal of the US envoy Witkoff provides for a 60-day ceasefire in Gaza, during which the sides would negotiate the conditions of a permanent ceasefire. However, it does not determine the extension of the temporary ceasefire if these talks last more than 60 days. The proposal also provides for the release of ten living Israeli hostages. The Islamist movement is also expected to hand over 18 corpses in exchange for the release of the unknown number of Palestinian captives. According to Israel, between 20 and 23 hostages, Hamas is expected to hold at least 35 more bodies, German news agency dpa reported.
