Saturday. Benjamin Netanyahu is now led to the de facto cancellation of the truce agreement, also pressured by the Israeli far -right.

Oil in the fire was dropped by Hamas’ decision not to release hostages on Saturday, as planned, citing supposed deception violations from Israel. The families of the remaining hostages are now anxious for their own, as the “already fragile” agreement is “in the air”.

What did Trump say?

“If they are not released, he will break up hell” Donald Trump threatened to release hostages on Saturday from the Oval Office on Monday night. He added for the ceasefire: “cancel it, and everything can happen.”

Trump said the final decision would be up to Israel, saying: “I’m talking about myself. Israel can bypass (what I say). ” When asked if the US would participate in a response to Hamas if the hostages are not released, Trump said: “Hamas will find out what I mean.” On Tuesday, he reiterated Saturday’s deadline as he was preparing to meet King Abdallah of Jordan.

The US president even said he could stop the help to Jordan and Egypt if these countries do not accept refugees from Gaza.

He implied that he meant that all the remaining hostages were released in Gaza, though he was not completely clear. Another 16, including eight bodies, are to be delivered as part of the first phase of fire. In total there are 76 prisoners who are still held in the enclave.

Hamas no longer believes that Washington’s guarantees for the ceasefire will apply, and does not believe that Israel wants to implement the plan reported Reuters.

The organization commented that “Intentionally he made this announcement five days before the scheduled hostage delivery, giving mediators abundant time to push [το Ισραήλ] to fulfill his obligations. “

What did Hamas answer?

OR Hamas reiterated on Tuesday’s commitment to the ceasefire agreement at Gauzesaying it makes it Israel Responsible for any “complications or delays”, according to the organization’s announcement.

Hamas’ statements come to the wake of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s warning.

What if the ceasefire agreement is respected?

This scenario seems to be moving away. However, the next exchange of Israeli hostages with Palestinian prisoners and prisoners was set for this Saturday, and would be the sixth in the context of six weeks, the first stage of the ceasefire agreement.

Host-holdings are normally scheduled to continue on a weekly basis until March 2. In the second stage, all the remaining living hostages should be released and Israel completely withdraw from Gaza, ending the war.

Conversations for the second stage had to start last week, But Netanyahu authorized the Israeli negotiating team to discuss only technical issues related to the first stage. Expanding the first phase of the agreement is another option.

The third phase is supposed to be the exchange of bodies of dead hostages and members of Hamas and will be followed by a plan of rebuilding the Gaza. Future governance plans remain unclear.
