Confusion and distrust depend on efforts to save a ceasefire

The Gaza ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas has been seemingly unstable since it came into effect on January 19th, but now appears to have fallen apart completely.

A senior Egyptian source told the BBC that regional mediators Egypt and Qatar are “strengthening their diplomatic efforts to save the ceasefire agreement.”

Hamas officials have arrived in Cairo to “contain the current crisis” by a top Hamas delegation. He repeated his “full commitment” to his group’s terms of business.

On Tuesday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, “If Hamas does not return hostages by midday on Saturday, the ceasefire will end and (Israel forces) will resume fierce battles.”

However, in line with the Ultimate High Stakes recommended by US President Donald Trump, there was a complicated message as to whether he meant all 76 hostages still in Gaza.

Trump was responding to Hamas’ threat of derailing the deal on Monday.

He filed a complaint of Israel’s ceasefire violations, particularly in connection with aid, and warned on Saturday that he would delay the release of hostages.

Over the past week, the president’s new radical plan to buy Gaza the US without the 2 million Palestinian residents has changed the context of the ceasefire his administration helped brokers.

On Wednesday, the White House revised Trump’s plans and admitted that Jordan’s King Abdullah II rejected the idea a day ago during consultations in Washington.

“The king would very much like the Palestinians to stay there,” said White House spokesman Carolyn Leavitt. “But the President feels that if these Palestinians can move to safer areas, it’s much better and more majestic.”

So, what more do we know about what has happened behind the scenes?

As for the outcome of Tuesday’s four-hour Israeli security cabinet meeting, Israeli journalists admitted their confusion over the contradictory and confused briefing.

First report after a video message from the Israeli Prime Minister called for the release of “our” hostages – cited an unknown Sinieisrael official – this is to the former three male hostages that are due to be released He said he mentioned it.

It was then said that Israel had expected the final nine hostages to be released in the first phase of the six-week ceasefire.

The main minister then said that Netanyahu’s close ally Miri Regev was “very clear” in the X, reflecting Trump’s demands. She said: “By Saturday, everyone will be released!”

The far-right Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich – threatened to leave Netanyahu’s coalition if he didn’t return to the battle at the end of the six-week ceasefire agreement – went further.

On social media, he suggested that Hamas was told to release all hostages or that the “gate to hell” was opened without fuel, water or humanitarian aid entering Gaza.

He said there should be “only fire and bridges” from Israeli fighters and tanks, and that strips should be fully occupied and their population should be expelled.

“We have all the international support for this issue,” he said.

His comments show how Trump’s postwar vision for Gaza strengthened Israel’s far-right.

It is said to be concerned about Israeli security chiefs who negotiate the current ceasefire deal and believe that its collapse will put the lives of hostages at risk.

Israeli media reports that they are pushing for ways to regain the next three prisoners of war that Hamas holds on their schedule over the weekend.

Hostage families and their supporters are just as war-tired Gazan, as are the latest developments.

The fact that Gaza Hamas leader Khalil Al Haiya leads a delegation to follow up on the implementation in Cairo indicates that the armed groups are trying to get the ceasefire contracts on track .

Since January 19th, the deal has led to a total of 16 Israeli hostages returning home in exchange for hundreds of Palestinian prisoners held by Israel. Five Thai farm workers were also released.

At the same time, Israeli forces retreated just inside the area of ​​Gaza, including the Egyptian border.

The relatively mildness led to hundreds of thousands of displaced Palestinians returning to their neighborhoods, resulting in a surge in humanitarian aid.

However, the current impasse comes from Hamas’ claim that Israel does not support its promise in the first phase of the armistice.

This has said that Israeli authorities need to allow around 300,000 tents and 60,000 caravans in Gaza.

So many people returned to the ruins of the house – during the cold, wet winter weather, such a shelter was desperately needed.

Fuel and generators are said to be lacking, especially in the northern part of Gaza, especially in the north of Gaza.

It is difficult to see exactly what’s in the strip.

“Since the ceasefire was implemented, 644,000 people across Gaza have been supported by shelters, including tents, sealing off materials and tarpaulins,” according to figures cited by the United Nations.

Israeli military group Cogat said Israel “fulfils its obligation to promote the entry of 600 humanitarian trucks every day.”

“According to data available to us, hundreds of thousands of tents have come into the Gaza Strip since the agreement was implemented.”

Despite conflicting explanations, it can be assumed that the issue surrounding the aid that Israel allows for Gaza can be resolved by mediators.

“Cairo and Doha are urging all parties to adhere to terms of the contract amidst political and disciplinary complexities that make tasks more challenging,” a senior Egyptian source told the BBC.

“We warn that the continued ceasefire will benefit everyone and that the collapse of the agreement will lead to a new wave of violence with severe local impacts.”

Even if the immediate crisis can be overcome by this weekend, it will leave the next stage of a ceasefire talk that has yet to be resolved.

Unless Hamas and Israel agree to an extension, the first phase of the transaction should close in March. So far, the negotiations have been postponed.

The Israeli Prime Minister, in contradicting his war goals, amid pressure from his governing coalition and growing evidence during a ceasefire that Hamas remains a vital political and military force in Gaza, will be in the next stage. We delayed discussions on.

Between hostage handshakes and the distribution of aid, Hamas sought to project an image of its own power.

Previously, they showed a willingness to share power with other Palestinian factions, but it appears unlikely to be disarmed.

In addition to this, Trump doubled his idea of ​​turning Gaza into a Mediterranean destination after moving the people who live there to Jordan and Egypt, causing shock and rage across the Arab world. Ta.

Egypt says it has developed its own comprehensive Gaza reconstruction plan.

Leaders of Egypt, Qatar, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia are expected to meet on February 27th ahead of their meeting in Cairo.

The ongoing conflict about Gaza’s future adds to deep distrust and deep distrust in an effort to resolve current issues.
