Hamas Offers Israeli Prisoners’ Release for Permanent Gaza Ceasefire

The Palestinian resistance group Hamas has announced its willingness to release all remaining Israeli prisoners in exchange for a permanent ceasefire and a complete withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza.

As the first phase of the ceasefire agreement nears completion, Hamas has signaled readiness to proceed with the second phase, emphasizing its conditions for peace.

In a statement, Hamas declared that it is prepared to return all living Israeli prisoners along with the bodies of eight individuals, provided that a lasting ceasefire is established and Israeli troops leave Gaza entirely. The organization has rejected any discussions about its disarmament, calling such demands unacceptable.

The ceasefire negotiations between Hamas and Israel have been ongoing, with international mediators attempting to secure a lasting peace in the region. While initial agreements led to a temporary cessation of hostilities, Hamas' latest proposal suggests a broader resolution contingent upon Israel’s withdrawal.

The situation remains fluid as both sides continue to weigh their options amid mounting international pressure for a peaceful resolution.
