Israel said that the names of three hostages were obtained by the terrorists at the end of this week on Friday, threatening to bring Gaza back into the war after a crisis in the ceasefire.
The hostage due to the release on Saturday is Israel-Russian Sasha Truppanov, Israel-American Sagui Dekele-Chane and Israel-Arriersinian Yare Horn, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said in a statement.
One of them is being organized by Hamas’s associate Islamic Jihad, who participated in an attack on Israel on 7 October 2023 which provoked the war in Gaza.
Israel had warned Hamas that it would have to free three living hostages at the end of this week or resume the war, the group said that it was prevented on release when it was described as a violation of Israel of Gaza Trus. Will give
President Donald Trump has been under heavy stress in a ceasefire on January 19 after President Donald Trump proposed the US acquisition, under which Gaza’s population of over two million will be taken to Egypt or Jordan.
Arab countries have come together to reject the plan, and Saudi Arabia will host Egypt, Jordan, Qatar and United Arab Emirates leaders on February 20 for a summit on the issue.
Calls for red cross access
The release of Israeli hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners, as agreed under the conditions of the Trus, brought very important relief for families on both sides of war, but last week the American status of Israeli’s captives had incited the anger in Israel to anger in Israeli and beyond.
The International Committee of Red Cross said in a statement on Friday, “The latest release operations strengthens the immediate need for ICRC access to those who are for the convenience of hostage.”
“We are very worried about the terms of the hostages.”
After Hamas’s handover ceremony last week, during which the detainees were forced to speak, the ICRC appealed to be more private and distinguished for the future handover.
Israel-American hostage Keith Seagal, who was released in the previous exchange about two weeks ago, described abuse during his captivity in a video message.
“I am a survivor. I was held under unimaginable circumstances for 484 days, every day it felt that it could be my last,” he said.
“I was hungry and I was tortured physically and emotionally.”
‘Power Games’
Trump, who proposed to handle Gaza and transfer his 2.4 million inhabitants to Egypt or Jordan, provoked global resentment, warned this week that if Hamas failed to release all the hostages by noon on Saturday, then ” Hell “will be loose.
Israel later released Hamas to “Three Living Hoses” on Saturday.
Government spokesperson David Menser said, “If all three of them are not released, if Hamas does not return our hostages, by Saturday afternoon, the ceasefire will end.”
If fighting starts again, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katj said that it would not only lead the “defeat of Hamas and the release of all the hostages”, but also allows “Gaza” to achieve the vision of US President Trump for Gaza. Gives “.
US State Secretary Marco Rubio was due to discussing the ceasefire after attending the Munich Security Conference in Israel, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, where he would interact on Ukraine.
Katz ordered the Israeli army to prepare for a “voluntary” departure from Gaza last week, and the army said it had already begun to strengthen its troops around the region.
Marav Zonsin of the International Crisis Group said that despite her public disputes, Israel and Hamas were still interested in maintaining the Trus and “not yet given anything”.
“They are just playing power games,” he said.
‘God Almighty?’
Arab countries have performed a rare performance of unity in rejection of Trump’s proposal for Gaza.
After the Riyadh Summit, the Arab League will call on 27 February to discuss the same issue in Cairo.
Trump has threatened to cut the lifeline for a long -standing colleagues to Jordan and Egypt, refusing to come on board.
Jordan is already home to more than two million Palestinian refugees. More than half of the country’s 11 million population is of Palestinian origin.
Egypt put up its proposal under a structure for reconstruction of Gaza, which would allow Palestinians to remain in the area.
Palestinians in Gaza have also opposed the plan.
For Palestinians, any forced displacement “noseba”, or provokes memories of destruction – during the creation of Israel in 1948, their ancestors’ massive displacement.
Abu Mohammad Al-Hussari, a resident of Gaza City, said, “Who is Trump? Is that God is omnipotent? The land of Jordan is for the people of Jordan, and the Egyptian land is related to Egyptians.”
“We are here, Gaza is deeply vested in Gaza – flexible, surrounded and unbreakable gaza.”
