Reports are circulating on how Hamas militants wrote a new plan for a four-and-a-half-month ceasefire in Gaza, during which all hostages will be released, Israel’s army will leave from the Gaza Strip, and an end-of-war agreement will be reached between the parties during this time.
However Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday rejected the proposal for a Gaza war truce by Hamas.
The proposed agreement was seen by Reuters in a document confirmed by sources, stating that Hamas was demanding a full end to the war as a pre-condition before releasing hostages it seized on October 7 in the raid that precipitated Israel’s assault.
This came as a response to an offer sent last week by Qatari and Egyptian mediators and cleared by Israel and the United States.
