According to Fars News Agency, US President Joe Biden spoke on Friday in separate phone calls with the leaders of Qatar and Egypt about efforts to free prisoners from Gaza.
Axios base, reporting this news, added that these phone calls are part of the efforts of Biden and his team to reach an agreement that could lead to a two-month pause in Gaza.
Egypt and Qatar are the two main mediators in the indirect talks between Israel and Hamas regarding the exchange of prisoners.

“Benjamin Netanyahu”, the prime minister of Israel, has determined the destruction of Hamas and the release of prisoners from Gaza and the destruction of Hamas as his war goals in Gaza. Despite this, the realization of both of these goals has reached a dead end.
The New York Times reported a few days ago that a number of senior commanders of the Israeli army have now come to the conclusion that achieving both goals at the same time is not possible, and any long-term plan to destroy Hamas will inevitably The death of prisoners will result.
Furthermore, many analysts have questioned the possibility of the complete destruction of Hamas even in occupied Palestine. “Gadi Eisenkot”, one of the former officials of the Israeli army, who is currently a member of Benjamin Netanyahu’s war cabinet, in an interview about 10 days ago, described the promises of the Israeli authorities for the complete destruction of Hamas as “storytelling”.
“Ehud Olmert”, the former prime minister of the Zionist regime, also wrote in a note in Haaretz newspaper a few days ago that Netanyahu himself knows that he is not able to eliminate Hamas.
Western analysts say that the Palestinian Islamic resistance movement, Hamas, has survived the repeated attempts of the Israeli regime to eliminate itself since its inception. Military and political experts told the New York Times last month that the organization’s structure is designed to withstand plots to destroy itself.
The Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas On the 7th of October (15th of Mehr) in response to more than seven decades of occupation of Palestine and nearly two decades of siege of Gaza and imprisonment and torture of thousands of Palestinians, the operation known as “Al-Aqsa storm” began.
This operation was one of the deadliest attacks against this regime.
Hamas fighters penetrated into the occupied territories through the border fences at several points, attacked villages and besides killing A large number of Israelis captured some of them. Reports indicate that Hamas is currently holding 136 Israeli prisoners in Gaza.
In response to this operation, the Zionist regime launched heavy attacks against Gaza and put this area under complete siege. More than 26,000 Palestinians have been martyred and tens of thousands more injured in Israel’s attacks in Gaza so far. Despite this, as analysts say, the al-Aqsa storm operation has imposed a major security-political defeat on Israel.
The mediation of Egypt, Qatar and the United States for the release of prisoners has not been successful so far. The Hamas movement said that negotiations for the exchange of prisoners will be possible only if the deadly attacks on Gaza end. Israelis and 24 citizens of foreign countries were released in exchange for 240 Palestinians.
