A high-ranking member of the Hamas terror organization revealed to a French media outlet that the group is prepared to begin discussions regarding the next phase of a ceasefire arrangement with Israel.
The negotiations, according to the source, will center on several key topics. These include establishing a long-term ceasefire, ensuring that fighting does not resume, the withdrawal of IDF troops from Gaza—specifically from the Philadelphi Corridor—and defining terms for the release of Palestinian terrorists.
The insider further claimed that the Al-Qassam Brigades and other armed factions in Gaza are currently holding multiple high-ranking IDF officers and soldiers hostage.
Hamas has indicated that part of the agreement involves maintaining the flow of humanitarian aid into Gaza. However, the terror group has a history of seizing control of such aid and diverting it to fund their operations, often at the expense of the civilian population.
This aid package would include essential supplies such as food and medicine, along with 200,000 tents and 60,000 caravans. It would also involve the transfer of materials needed to restore hospitals and water infrastructure, fuel for operational purposes, equipment for clearing rubble, and efforts to recover bodies from destroyed areas.
