The efforts for a ceasefire and the release of hostages in the Gaza Strip are ongoing. Israel’s Prime Minister Netanyahu hopes that it will happen soon. For the time being, however, dying continues.
Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu conjured up victory over Islamist Hamas during the ongoing efforts to do an ceasefire in the Gaza Strip. “We will defeat these monsters and get our hostages back,” Netanyahu told the Ultraconservative US broadcaster Newsmax. He hoped that “in a few days” as part of a 60-day ceasefire, which will be negotiated in Qatar with the help of intermediaries, will come free of the hostile hostages. Hamas has already approved the release of ten hostages, but sees the negotiations on the ceasefire, however, even unresolved issues.
Meanwhile, dozens of people were again killed in Palestinian information in Israeli attacks. At least 55 deaths were mentioned in medical circles in Gaza. This could not be checked independently. According to the Palestinian news agency Wafa, 16 people were killed in the centrally located city of Deir Al-Balah alone, including ten minors, including hospital information. According to the clinic, people who were waiting for food aid were hit in the attack. UNICEF Executive Director Catherine Russell expressed horror about the reports.
Again reports of dozens of deaths
“The killing of families who try to receive life -saving help is irresponsible,” she said. UNICEF calls Israel for an independent examination of the incident. “This is the cruel reality with which many people in Gaza are confronted today after inadequate help has come to the area for months and the parties to the conflict have not fulfilled their fundamental responsibility to protect the civilian population”.
Upon request, Israel’s army announced that she had attacked a Hamas terrorist in the area. He was involved in the massacre on October 7, 2023 in Israel, who triggered the war. The army is aware of reports on injuries in the area, it said. “The incident is currently being examined.” The Israeli military regrets “all suffering that is inflicted on uninvolved people, and strives to keep suffering as low as possible.”
First UN fuel delivery for Gaza in 130 days
In the meantime, the United Nations, according to their own information, have once again delivered fuel in the Gaza Strip after 130 days. 75,000 liters were brought in the sealed coastal strips, where hundreds of thousands of people suffered bitter hardship, said UN spokesman Stéphane Dujarric.
However, he emphasized that hundreds of thousands of liters of fuel for life -saving and life -resistant measures are needed every day. “This means that the amount delivered yesterday is not even sufficient to cover the energy requirement one day.” Israel has sealed the Gaza Strip and checked the access to the area. For example, fuel is required for the operation of generators for hospitals or bakeries.
The US government recently expressed its hope for a 60-day ceasefire until the end of this week-but President Donald Trump now believes that the next week is also possible. After the start of the ceasefire, talks should be recorded in order to end the war permanently, said Israel’s head of government Netanyahu, according to his office, in a statement at the end of his four-day visit to the USA.
Netanyahu confirms conditions for the end of the war
Netanyahu confirmed for a permanent ceasefire, however, Israel’s “minimum conditions”: Hamas puts the weapons down, has no more state or military skills, and Gaza is also demilized. If these conditions are not met by negotiations within the desired 60-day ceasefire, Israel will achieve this with gun power, he emphasized. Two weapons rest had come about since the beginning of the war, but both times of Israel’s army continued the fighting against Hamas.
Hamas demands guarantees in the United States that Israel cannot rescue the war one -sided after the end of a third ceasefire. During the visit of Netanyahu in the United States, the US news page “Axios” reported that the US emissary Steve Witkoff had sent a message to Hamas via a Palestinian-American businessman that US President Donald Trump was decided to extend the ceasefire if negotiations on the end of the war should take longer than 60 days.
If the demilitarization and the dismantling of Hamas’ skills are achieved through negotiations, “all the better,” said Netanyahu, according to his office. In any case, Israel will achieve his goals. There are still 50 hostages in Gaza, he told the newsmax station. “20 are definitely alive, and about 30 are not alive and I want to get them all out”. He hoped “we can complete this in a few days”.
