Axios claims about a new plan for a several-week ceasefire in Gaza

According to the report of Fars International News Agency, the Axios base, close to American and Israeli sources, quoting informed sources, claimed that Qatari mediators told Israel that Hamas is “in principle resuming negotiations” on a new agreement for It has agreed to release about 36 prisoners from Gaza in exchange for several weeks of ceasefire.

In the previous ceasefire agreement, the Israeli regime extended the ceasefire by one day for the release of every 10 Israeli prisoners. If the Axios report is true, Israel’s agreement to release 36 prisoners in exchange for a ceasefire of several weeks indicates the level of pressure on Tel Aviv regarding these prisoners.

Axios reported this news, citing three Israeli officials, and wrote that officials in Tel Aviv are examining Qatar’s message with utmost caution and said they would like to receive more information in the coming days to know if Is Hamas serious or not?

Palestinian Islamic resistance movement Hamas has repeatedly emphasized in the past days that the resumption of any negotiations depends on the cessation of hostilities and the withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza.

An Israeli official said that Qatar’s message is still at a very preliminary stage. Despite this, he said that this message is “very positive, because after the completion of the previous agreement, this is the first time that Hamas has expressed its desire to return to the negotiating table. We are moving from a complete freeze to a cold phase of negotiations.”

Another Israeli official said that Tel Aviv has not yet received a detailed plan and is still waiting to hear more details. “But in any case, the differences are still very large,” he said. Earlier, the AFP claimed that a delegation from Hamas is going to go to Egypt on Friday to discuss the ceasefire negotiations.

Axios reported a few days ago that Israel has presented a plan according to which Israel will agree to a pause in the Gaza war for a week in exchange for the release of more than 36 prisoners. Israel had also agreed to release more Palestinian prisoners than the first agreement.

The heads of the CIA and Mossad, as well as the Qatari prime minister, met in Warsaw in mid-December to discuss this proposal.

Egypt proposed a three-stage agreement last week, which would eventually lead to the release of all prisoners from both sides. Under Egypt’s plan, the third phase of the end-of-war agreement included Israel’s withdrawal from Gaza and the formation of a technocratic government in Gaza.

Zionist regime In response to this operation, it launched heavy attacks against Gaza and placed this area under a complete siege. Despite this, as analysts say, the al-Aqsa operation has imposed a major security-political defeat on Israel.

Israeli regime officials have declared their military goal in this war to destroy Hamas. Meanwhile, many analysts have questioned the possibility of achieving this goal, even in occupied Palestine.
