Cautious optimism to end the fire of gas when Netanyahu visits us

After 21 months of war, hopes for a new Gaza Fire Communication increased, as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu meets with US President Donald Trump in Washington.

Previously, Trump told reporters that he was “very hard” with Netanyahu about the termination of the conflict and that he thinks “we will have a deal” this week.

“We are working to achieve the transaction under discussion under the conditions we have agreed on,” the veteran Israeli prime minister said before embarking on his plane. “I believe that conversation with President Trump can definitely help to advance this result, which we all hope for.”

Indirect conversations between Israel and Hamas on a US-sponsored proposal for a 60-day fire termination transaction and hostages resumed Qatar on Sunday night.

However, it is unclear whether the key differences that have constantly maintained an agreement can be overcome.

The only cautious optimism is expressed by tired Palestinians living in harsh conditions against the background of the continuation of the daily Israeli bombing, and the difficult families of Israeli hostage, still held by Hamas.

“I do not want a truce, but a complete suspension of the whole war. Honestly, I am afraid that in 60 days the war will restart again,” says Nabil Abu Daya, who escaped from Bate Lahia in North Gaza to Gaza with his children and grandchildren.

“We are so tired of the displacement that we were tired of thirst and hunger, from living in tents. When it comes to life needs, we have zero.”

On Saturday night, big rallies were held, urging the Israel government to conclude a deal to return about 50 hostages from Gaza, up to 20 of which are thought to be alive.

Some relatives asked why the framework transaction would not release all captives immediately.

“How does a person survive under such conditions? I wait for Evar to come back and tell me himself,” said Eli David, whose younger brother, musician, was filmed by Hamas at Torment as he watched his fellow hostages release earlier this year in the last, two-month-ending fire.

“This is the moment to save lives. This is the time to save the bodies from the threat of extinction,” Eli told a crowd in Jerusalem.

“In the rapidly changing reality of the Middle East, this is the moment to sign a comprehensive agreement, which will lead to the release of all hostages, each, without exception.”

Netanyahu has been visiting the White House for the third time since Trump returned to power nearly six months ago.

But the leaders will meet for the first time since the United States joined the Israeli attacks against Iranian nuclear sites and then mediated to end the fire between Israel and Iran.

There is a strong sense that the recent 12-day war has created more favorable circumstances to end the war in Gaza.

After months of low popularity, the Israeli prime minister is supported by a broad public support for the offensive of Iran and analysts suggest that he now has more leverage to agree to a peaceful deal because of the strong objections to his extreme right -wing coalition partners who want Israel to remain controlled.

It can be seen that Hamas was further weakened by Iran’s strikes – a key regional cartridge – which means that it can be more susceptible to the discounts needed to reach an agreement.

Meanwhile, Trump is eager to move to other Middle East priorities.

These include intermediary negotiations between Israel and Syria, a return to efforts to normalize relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia and the completion of an unfinished business with Iran, including possible negotiations for a new nuclear deal.

For months, negotiations to end the fire between Israel and Hamas have been fixed for one major difference.

Israel is ready to commit to a temporary truce to return hostages, but not the end of the war. Hamas demanded a constant end of the hostilities in Gaza and the complete extraction of Israeli troops.

It is alleged that the latest Hamas proposal includes guarantees of Washington’s commitment to the transaction and continuing negotiations to achieve lasting fire and release all hostages.

Nothing has been officially announced, but according to media reports, the frame will see Hamas to hand over 28 hostages – 10 alive and 18 dead – in five stages over 60 days without the anxious transmission ceremonies that he organizes in the last termination of the fire.

There will be a big jump in the humanitarian aid entering Gaza.

Upon the return of the first eight living hostages on the first day of the agreement, the Israeli forces will withdraw from parts of the north. In a week, the army will leave parts from the south.

On the 10th day, Hamas will outline which hostages remain alive and their condition, while Israel will give details of more than 2000 Gazani arrested during the war that remain in “administrative detention” – a practice that allows the Israeli authorities to hold them without charge or court.

As you can see before, a large number of Palestinians will be released from Israeli prisons in exchange for hostages.

President Trump described this as a “final” ceasefire proposal and said last week that Israel had accepted the “necessary conditions” to finalize it.

On Friday, Hamas said he had answered in a “positive spirit”, but expressed some reservations.

A Palestinian employee said that the adhesive points remain above the humanitarian aid – Hamas requires that the operations of the controversial Israeli and supported by the US Gaza (GHF) and a return to the UN and its partners, who observe all efforts to relieve relief.

It is also claimed that Hamas calls into question the graphics for the withdrawal of Israeli troops and operations of the Rafa crossing between South Gaza and Egypt.

The Netanyahu service said on Saturday that the changes requested by Hamas were “not acceptable” to Israel.

The prime minister has repeatedly said that Hamas should be disarmed, a request that the Islamist group has so far refused to discuss.

In Israel, the opposition of the war in Gaza has increased, with over 20 soldiers killed in the last month, according to the military.

The head of the Israeli serviceman’s headquarters, Lieutenant Eiol, said last week that he was approaching his military goals and signaled that the government had to decide whether to move forward with a deal to bring home hostages or prepare for the Israeli forces to restore the military rule.

Polls show that two -thirds of the Israelis support a deal to end the fire to bring the hostages home.

In Gaza, some residents are concerned that the current wave of positivity is being produced to alleviate tensions during the trip to the United States in Netanyahu – rationaling that it happened in May as Trump prepares to visit the Arab Gulf.

The following days will be critical political and humanitarian terms.

The Gaza situation continues to get worse, with medical staff reporting acute malnutrition among children.

The UN says that without fuel that has entered for more than four months, stocks have already disappeared, threatening vital medical care, water supply and telecommunications.

Israel began its Gaza war in revenge on the attacks led by Hamas on October 7, 2023, with about 1,200 people killed and led to 251 others to be hostage.

Since then, the Israeli attacks have killed over 57,000 people in Gaza, according to Hamas Health Ministry. The ministry’s numbers are cited by the UN and others as the most reliable source of statistics available to the victims.
