Hamas says that talks with Israel were stopping how he was agreed

Cairo – Talks with Israel through mediators about further steps in a ceasefire agreement depend on the fact that Palestinian prisoners are released as agreed, said Hamas Official Basem Naim on Sunday.

Israel said on Sunday that the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners was delayed, which had freed it the day before until the militant group Hamas met its conditions.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office said Israel was waiting for the 620 Palestinian prisoners and prisoners to be delivered, “until the publication of the next hostages and without the humiliating ceremonies” was insured “.

This was an indication of the latest handover of Hamas, of whom the UN said they had violated international law because they were not respectful.

The White House on Sunday supported the decision of Israel to delay the release of the Palestinian prisoners, citing the “barbaric treatment” of Hamas. The delay was a “reasonable reaction” to the treatment of the hostages of the Palestinian militant group by the Palestinian group, said a statement by the speaker of the National Security Council, Brian Hughes,.

President Donald Trump is ready to “whatever supports, in relation to Hamas,” he added.

Hamas has made hostages appearing on stage in front of crowds and sometimes speaking before they were handed over. Coffins with hostage remains were also worn by crowds.

“All conversations with the enemy due to mediators related to impending steps are dependent on the release of the 620 Palestinian prisoners Bureau said to Reuters.

“The mediators must ensure that the enemy adheres to the conditions of the agreement, as stated in the agreed text.”

The Palestinian prison society, a local group that supports Palestinian prisoners, said Israel practices “state terrorism against prisoners and their families”.

Ghasan Washahi, whose brother was to be released on Saturday, said his family was disappointed with the delay.

“We would wait every time there was a list of prisoners to be published, hoping that the name of Islam would be among them, but he was never there,” he said and referred to his brother .

“My mother even lost hope that he would be freed in the deal. And when his name finally appeared, Israel stopped the deal.”

Israel and Hamas have often accused each other on each other since the start of the ceasefire on January 19, but it has kept still. Hamas said that due to suspected Israeli violations, it would stop handing over hostages.

The ceasefire has brought a break in the fights, but the prospects for a final end to the war remain unclear.

Both sides have explained that they intend to start the talks in a second stage, which the mediators say, to agree to the return of all remaining hostages and the full retreat of Israeli troops.

The war began when the militants led by Hamas started a cross -border attack on Israeli communities on October 7, 2023, in which 1,200 were killed and, according to Israeli Tallies, 251 people were taken hostage.

The Israeli retaliation measure killed at least 48,000 people, say the Palestinian health authorities and reduced a large part of the enclaves to debris, with a few hundreds of thousands in provisional accommodations and auxiliary cars. – Repetitions
