Shafaq News/ On Thursday, IsraeliPrime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatened to pull the negotiating delegationfrom Doha if meaningful progress is not made in ongoing ceasefire talks, amid continuingIsraeli hostilities in the Gaza Strip.
Netanyahu stated that negotiationswould cease if Hamas pursued further demands, stressing that “no agreementwould compromise Israel's security,” according to the Israeli BroadcastingAuthority.
"Hamas has renegedon explicit agreements reached with mediators and Israel, resorting tolast-minute extortion," his office stated. "Israel will not schedulea government meeting to discuss the agreement until mediators confirm Hamas'sapproval of all its details."
Hamas, however, rejected Netanyahu'sallegations, reaffirming its commitment to the terms outlined by mediators,including a hostage exchange and an end to what it described as Israel'songoing genocide in Gaza, which has claimed over 45,000 lives—mostly women andchildren—during its 16-month span.
These statements come as Gaza'sMinistry of Health reported that Israel committed eight massacres in the past24 hours, resulting in 81 deaths and 188 injuries.
Meanwhile, a source revealed thatthe delay in Netanyahu's official announcement regarding the Gaza ceasefire islinked to tensions with Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, leader of theReligious Zionist Party, who stated, "Our continued participation in thegovernment requires absolute certainty of resuming the war with full force,utilizing all capabilities in a new approach, until complete victory isachieved, including the destruction of Hamas and the return of allhostages."
The source affirmed that “Netanyahuis delaying the announcement to ensure government stability after approving theagreement.”
Netanyahu's claims of Hamas"backtracking on understandings,” analysts believe, may aim to delayendorsing the ceasefire agreement until he secures Smotrich's continued supportfor his government. A united front between Smotrich and Itamar Ben-Gvir, leaderof the Jewish Power Party, could reportedly block the agreement's approval.Together, the two leaders control 14 of the Knesset's 120 seats, enough tocollapse the government.
The agreement, brokered on Wednesdaythrough Qatari and American mediation, remains uncertain, contingent on allparties meeting their commitments. It outlines a three-phase ceasefirebeginning next Sunday, involving the release of 33 hostages held in Gaza inexchange for 1,000 Palestinian detainees in Israeli prisons and the facilitationof humanitarian aid into the besieged Gaza Strip.
Additionally, the Israeli army wouldwithdraw from Gaza and transition to a “defensive posture” once the ceasefiretakes effect, Israel's Channel 14 reported.
