Discussions around the proposed truce in the war in Gaza, submitted at the end of April, resumed this Sunday, May 5, in Egypt.
The two parties involved in the war in Gaza have resumed discussions in Egypt to reach a truce. The project submitted at the end of April provides for a pause in the Israeli offensive and the release of Palestinian detainees in exchange for the return of the hostages to Israel.
But around the table this Sunday, May 5, in Cairo, the negotiations became complicated. Israel said it “cannot accept” Hamas’ demand for a truce agreement providing for a definitive end to hostilities in the Gaza Strip. “When Israel shows its good will, Hamas persists in its extreme positions, led by its demand for the withdrawal of our forces from the Gaza Strip, an end to the war and the preservation of Hamas. Israel cannot accept this “, declared the Israeli Prime Minister in the Council of Ministers, relays TF1 Info.
The Israelis accuse Hamas of obstructing any agreement with this demand. On Saturday, it was the leaders of the terrorist organization who, in turn, believed that Benjamin Netanyahu was hindering any agreement by wanting to launch an assault in Rafah.
The parties have thus maintained the status quo since Saturday evening. Meanwhile, the war continues to rage in the Gaza Strip. According to the Hamas Ministry of Health, at least 29 deaths were recorded in twenty-four hours, bringing the death toll to 34,683 since the October 7 attacks.
