Hamas delegation is in Cairo in trying to find with the mediators a way out of war – at least 35 killed in Gaza
Hamas said today that it was ready for an agreement to release all hostages that are still being held in Gaza and a five -year truce with Israel, whose army again hit the Palestinian enclave, causing the deaths of at least 35 people.
A Hamas delegation is in Cairo in an attempt to find a way out with the mediators with a way out of the war that erupted by the Commando attack of the Islamic Palestinian organization against Israel on October 7, 2023.
Hamas ”is ready for an exchange of prisoners [Ισραηλινών ομήρων με Παλαιστίνιους κρατούμενους] in a single business and a five -year truce, “he said on condition of anonymity officials at the French Agency.
The Islamist movement had rejected an Israeli proposal on April 17, which mainly provided for a 45 -day truce in exchange for the return of ten hostages in life held since October 7, 2023.
Hamas requires an agreement that will include a cessation of hostilities, a complete withdrawal of Israeli troops, the exchange of Israeli hostages with Palestinian prisoners, and the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza, where 2.4 million inhabitants are facing residents.
Israel is calling for the return of all hostages and Hamas’ disarmament, which he has vowed to eliminate.
Mahmoud Mardawi, a Hamas executive, reiterated today that he wants a “overall deal” that will include “international guarantees”.
Israel “may repeat the war after a partial agreement, but it cannot do so after a comprehensive agreement accompanied by international guarantees,” he said in a statement. “We require these guarantees to be included in any agreement.”
According to the Palestinian Civil Protection Service, at least 35 people were killed in the Gaza Strip in the morning, where Israel reiterated its military attack on March 18, after two months of ceasefire, saying it wants to force Hamas to release them.
Ten were killed in the bombing of a house in the city of Gaza (north), who left many other people under the ruins, Mohammed Al Mugaire told the French Civil Protection Agency.
Footage transmitted by the French agency from the spot show Palestinians to cut, in the light of the lenses, the metal structure of the building and to retrieve at least one corpse from the ruins.
A little girl, with a bandage on her head, stands there, apparently shocked.
“The whole world is sleeping with its children, and without any warning, we saw the house crumble on us,” said one family member, Umm Walid al-Hur.
The Israeli army did not comment but said it hit “1,800 terrorist targets” somewhere and killed “hundreds of terrorists” since March 18th.
Israel also prevents March 2 to cross humanitarian aid to the Palestinian pockets, whose 2.4 million people have been displaced at least once during the war.
Yesterday, Friday, the World Food Program (PAM) announced that it delivered “its latest food stocks to the kitchens serving hot meals”, which are expected to completely dry out of food in the coming days.
Today, footage of the French agency show Palestinians standing in the queue in a community cuisine in Nusairat (center) to fill their saucepan with tomato sauce.
“It’s tragic. There are no foods in solidarity cuisines, there are no food in the markets,” says Wael Odeh, a displaced Palestinian.
Gaza residents “are” delayed “, says Jonathan Weittal, director of the United Nations Humanitarian Affairs Office (OCHA).
“They drown (…) It’s not only a matter of humanitarian needs but also of dignity. It is an insult to people’s dignity,” he told reporters.
Hamas’ attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, caused the deaths of 1,218 people from the Israeli side, most of the civilians, according to a countdown by the French Agency based on official data.
Of the 251 people who were abducted that day, 58 are still held in Gaza, 34 of whom are dead, according to the Israeli army.
According to data released today by the Hamas Ministry of Health, at least 2,111 Palestinians have been killed by the repetition of the Israeli attack on March 18, raising the number of dead in Gaza since the start of the war.
