Each side blames the other for not keeping the agreement
New thriller in progress about the release of the third group of hostages from Hamas.
The continuation of the implementation of the agreement between Israel and Hamas, which is now in its third day, is hanging by a thread.
While earlier Israel announced that 13 more hostages from Hamas are expected to be released today, an official of the Islamist organization, speaking today to Qatari media, accused Israel of still not complying with the provisions of the agreement.
According to what was reported by the envoy of SKAI in Israel, Stavros Ioannidis, Hamas is preparing to cancel today’s release of hostages.
In addition, an official of the Red Cross, speaking to skynews, appeared very cautious that the release process will be repeated today.
So even today it seems that the agreement is hanging by a thread.
Besides, Israel also accuses Hamas of not respecting the agreement as it did not release the mother of 9-year-old Emily Hunt, according to what is provided for in the agreement, that is, when a minor is released, the mother is also released.
At this time there is great pressure from Qatar, Egypt and the US to honor the agreement, while the Israeli army threatens to resume operations if the agreement is not honored.
According to what was reported earlier by the Israeli media Ynet citing Israeli officials, Hamas intends to release 13 more of the hostages it is holding in the Gaza Strip.
Hamas has presented Israel with a list of 13 hostages to be released today, including some American citizens, Ynet reported.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said early this morning that it had received a list of the names of the hostages to be released today, although it did not specify the number.
Ynet reported that family members will not be separated this time, as happened during the second round of releases.
After freeing a first group of hostages on Friday, Hamas is still holding around 200 hostages.
