Tel Aviv: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has categorically rejected Hamas’s conditions for the release of captives in exchange for the release of Palestinians.
According to foreign sources, the Israeli Prime Minister stated that internal and external pressures are urging us to end the war without achieving our goals and agree to the release of captives at any cost, but we cannot accept Hamas’s conditions for the release of captives.
The Israeli Prime Minister said that accepting Hamas’s conditions and bringing back captives would mean that the Israeli state has surrendered before Hamas.
Israeli Minister Bezalel Smotrich, speaking to Israeli radio, said that the Israeli Prime Minister has made it clear that we cannot pay any price for the release of Israeli captives.
The Israeli minister further stated that for Netanyahu, the release of captives is also important, but no price will be paid for it, and instead, by increasing military pressure on Hamas and defeating them, all captives will be recovered.
On the other hand, British Prince William has expressed deep concern over the horrifying human cost of the ongoing conflict in the Middle East since October 7, with a significant loss of life in this conflict.
Prince William said that like everyone else, I also want an end to this war as soon as possible. There is an urgent need for humanitarian aid in Gaza at this time, it is crucial that aid reaches Gaza and captives are also released.
