ceasefire

The question now is whether Israel will manage to reach an agreement with Hamas before it is too late and what price it will be willing to pay.

Military sources stated that Hamas leadership in Gaza remains in hiding, “and therefore believes it is immune, prolonging the situation.”

The Israeli government voted to shut down the Qatari outlet in the country in May of last year.

The US government proposed extending the Gaza ceasefire beyond Ramadan and Passover, and warned Hamas that time is running out.

The security cabinet is expected to approve the expansion of the voluntary exit option for Palestinians from Gaza to third countries.

If Ocalan's declaration does not by itself signal the conclusion of the PKK-Ankara war, what is it nevertheless likely to herald? And does the declaration have broader regional implications?

The strikes were the largest known ones since the ceasefire agreement was signed in November.

Such assassinations and commando operations could lead to escalation and a gradual heating up of the situation, said sources.

Hamas said that Trump's repeated threats against Palestinians are support for Netanyahu to back out of the Gaza ceasefire and intensify the siege.

"Shalom Hamas' means Hello and Goodbye - You can choose," Trump's post read.
