⭕️ According to Yedioth Ahronoth, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to present his demands for the second phase of the ceasefire to Israel’s Security Cabinet, but Hamas is expected to reject them. His conditions include expelling the Hamas leadership from Gaza, dismantling the Qassam Brigades (Hamas’s military wing), and securing the release of all Israeli captives held in Gaza. There are currently 76 Israeli prisoners in Gaza, while thousands of Palestinians remain imprisoned in Israeli jails under severe conditions, with many dying in custody. The newspaper states that if Hamas agrees to these terms, the war in Gaza will end.
The report also reveals that Netanyahu discussed the ceasefire terms with US President Donald Trump and Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff. If Hamas rejects the demands, Netanyahu may extend the first phase of the ceasefire, avoiding full commitments to end the war or withdraw Israeli forces from Gaza. Additionally, Israel could manipulate the entry of humanitarian aid to Gaza.
