According to media reports, Qatar is mediating between Israel and Hamas to achieve a ceasefire and the release of hostages. Thousands once more fled from the north to the south of the Gaza Strip.

Media in Israel report on negotiations with the terrorist organization Hamas under the leadership of Qatar: There is talk of a ceasefire of one to two days in exchange for the release of ten to 15 hostages. However, an association that has been joined by numerous relatives of hostages in Israel insists that all hostages will be released if there is a ceasefire.

Meanwhile, the Israeli military said it destroyed numerous tunnels in the north of the coastal strip. A tunnel was found near a school run by the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees. Water supplies and oxygen devices were also found in tunnels, a spokesman said. Since the start of the war, the army says it has already destroyed 130 Hamas tunnel entrances.

“Putting the Palestinian issue back on the table”

Once once more, many people followed Israel’s call to go to the south of the Gaza Strip. While the Israeli military spoke of 50,000 people, the United Nations did not have an exact number. According to the UN, the day before there were around 15,000.

An interview in the New York Times with a leading Hamas representative is causing a stir in Israel. He said that with the terrorist attack on Israel on October 7, Hamas planned to trigger a permanent war with Israel. It was necessary to “change the entire equation and not just have a clash,” explained Chalil al-Haja of the Hamas leadership in Doha. “We managed to put the Palestinian issue back on the table and now there is no peace for anyone in the region.”
