Will there be a ceasefire in Gaza? Israel is the biggest obstacle to a solution.

Will there be a ceasefire in Gaza? Israel is the biggest obstacle to a solution.

Netanyahu claimed that they were working to release half of the Israeli prisoners in exchange for a temporary 60-day ceasefire and said:

"Negotiations to end the war will begin once the ceasefire comes into effect. If Hamas does not lay down its weapons and withdraw from Gaza within 60 days, we will return to attacks."

Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump announced that Israel had accepted the conditions for a 60-day ceasefire. It was stated that the final ceasefire proposal would be conveyed to Hamas by the mediators Qatar and Egypt .

Hamas, for its part, had announced its positive response to the proposal and its readiness for negotiations. However, the Tel Aviv government announced its rejection of some of Hamas's amendments to the proposal. Despite this, the Israeli delegation traveled to Doha for negotiations.

According to sources close to the talks, although progress has been made on many disputes, Israel's insistence on maintaining its military presence in the Morag Corridor, which separates Rafah and Khan Younis in southern Gaza, remains the biggest obstacle to a solution.
