'Release the hostages, this is the 'last chance': Israel's warning to Hamas


Leader Online Desk : The war between Israel and Hamas is intensifying. Ahead of the Rafah attack, Israel has offered a last chance to negotiate a deal for the release of the hostages. In this regard, a discussion was held between the Egyptian and Israeli representatives in Tel Aviv on Friday (April 26). Senior officials have told Israel that an Egyptian delegation is ready to pressure the Palestinian organization Hamas into a deal to release the hostages, The Times of Israel reported. Al-Cahira News has also reported that positive discussions have started regarding the release of the hostages.

Israeli officials have expressed confidence that Hamas will not delay a hostage deal to halt its assault on the city of Rafah. Israel is believed to have signaled a ceasefire through the hostage agreement.

'Mastermind of attack on Israel hides in Rafah'

Hamas still has one last chance. Israel is fully prepared for an attack in Rafah. The army had deployed two more reserve forces a few days ago. Hamas leader al-Sinwar is believed to be the mastermind behind the massacre in Israel on October 7 last year. About 1,200 Israeli soldiers and civilians were killed in the attack and more than 200 people were kidnapped in Gaza. Israel claims Al-Sinwar is hiding in tunnels in the city of Rafah.

Citizens are demonstrating on the streets for the release of the hostages.

Possibility of a new deal for the release of the hostages

According to Israeli media reports, the new talks between Egyptian and Israeli representatives were intended to focus on the release of the hostages with Hamas. According to the new agreement, some women, elderly and sick hostages will be released. Hamas rejected the US proposal to release 400 such abducted people. According to him, many hostages who fall into these categories do not survive. Hamas is demanding a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, which the Israeli government is rejecting.

Israel prepares to attack Rafah

Israel has completed all preparations to capture the city of Rafah. Now, as soon as the government approves, Israel is also preparing to start the military operation. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said a few days ago that Israel will proceed to attack Rafah in Gaza, where Israeli forces have not yet reached. Now a spokesman for Netanyahu's government has said that Israel's Defense Ministry had purchased 40,000 tents to evacuate Palestinians from Rafah before the attack, each with a capacity of 10 to 12 people. Meanwhile, the United Nations has also called on Israel to refrain from attacking the town of Rafah.
