“Take the advice of the President of the United States. Remove the hostages and remove Hamas, and other options will open for you – including the possibility of leaving for other places in the world that people want.”

– Deadlock –
So far, Hamas has not responded to the strike militarily, and an official of the group said it was open to interact to bring the ceasefire back to the track.

The talks have stopped to move forward with a ceasefire, the first phase of which ended in early March.

This would delay the onset of phase two, which was to establish a permanent ceasefire from Gaza and an Israeli return, while the remaining hostages are released in exchange for Palestinian prisoners.
