The Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper said that security leaders in Israel see the need to show flexibility in its position regarding the settlement file for the return of prisoners in Gaza, and explained that their estimates show that 51 of them out of 101 survive.
The newspaper said that security leaders believe that the inflexibility of Israel’s position means sacrificing the lives of the remaining prisoners.
She confirmed that the leaders of the security services are sure that the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) will not surrender in the negotiations to end the war and withdraw the army from Gaza.
The newspaper said that the attempt by the leaders of the security services to transfer the prisoners file comes from the fear of what happened to those who are still alive.
Israel’s Channel 13 said yesterday, Sunday, that Mossad Chief David Barnea will introduce new proposals for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip at a meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
In recent weeks, the Netanyahu government has been pushing for a short-term agreement, which includes a partial ceasefire and the exchange of a small number of prisoners.
Hamas rejects any agreement that does not include an end to the offensive, the withdrawal of Israeli occupation forces from the Gaza Strip, access to aid without restrictions, and those displaced to return to their homes.
In late October, the Israel Broadcasting Corporation reported that the head of the General Security Agency (Shin Bet), Ronen Bar, proposed an Israeli agreement to the ministerial council that includes a limited ceasefire, in exchange for the release of prisoners release without. the army withdrew from the Gaza Strip.
During the same period, Hamas leader Sami Abu Zuhri, in an interview with Al Jazeera, said that Israel and the United States do not want to reach any agreement to stop the war, and that they only want to get the prisoners back and continue the attack. .
