The war between Israel and Hamas was uncovered on Saturday, indicating Israel, accusing Hamas of being taken hostage. Stop in motion Ghazan citizens back to their homes to the north.

The Seas fire agreement was already a breakdown, Israeli statements often call it “framework” against an agreement.

This week, Israel says the 29 -year -old Arble Jew, who says it should have been released on Saturday, was not among the four women issued. Israel, in return, did not allow Ghazan’s citizens to return from the Netzerium Corridor to the north, which was aimed at being under the Seas Fire and the hostage agreement on Saturday.

Making the matter complicated is that Hamas has no Jews. Another militant group of the strip, a senior source of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement (PIJ), told CNN that it had a Jewish holding and that they would be issued under the terms of the “unanimous prisoner exchange agreement.” “”

Both Hamas and Israel have accused others of failing to stay at the end of their bargaining, and raises questions about how good it looks for more than 15 months.

“This is a very critical matter,” the former Israeli hostage negotiator, Gorshun Baskin, who spoke to Hamas through the backers, told CNN.

Baskin explained that Hamas would “not give anything free” in relation to the Jewish imprisonment. He added that “the risk of Israel is at risk not allowing to move to the north” works very little to help Hamas move forward to release it.

The former negotiator has warned that “threatening to allow homeless Palestinians not to go north” could “stop the release of hostages” and advised Israel to deal with the deal. Try to keep it alive.

Baskin added, “It is better for Israel to talk less and work more to the mediators.

Israeli military spokesman Daniel Hagari said on Saturday that “Hamas did not meet the agreement in terms of his responsibility to return to civilians,” he added, “We will insist that Arble Jews return. The rest are “with the rest of the hostages.

CNN footage reported that after the Israeli army firing on Saturday, hundreds of homeless people were fleeing in panic to stop them from returning to their homes to go to northern Gaza. The Israeli military said it was ‘unaware of any damage’ after its troops fired after warning shots to remove the crowd in Gaza.

Hamas said Israel was delayed in implementing the terms of the ceasefire agreement and the terms of the prisoner exchange, and it exchanged ceasefire by preventing the return of displaced persons from south to north to north. The prisoner has continued the exchange. ”

The Palestinian militant group added that Israel was “responsible for any delay in the implementation of the deal and the losses on the rest of the stages.”

There are questions about how the United States under President Donald Trump will respond to violations of both sides.

An Israeli official told CNN Saturday that Israel asked the Trump administration to follow the terms of the deal and free Jews on Hamas. The message was sent to Trump’s Middle East envoy, Steve Watkov, the official added. The CNN has reached the Trump administration for comment.

Senior Associate Fellow of the Center for American Progress and Royal United Services Institute and Senior Associate Fellow at the Royal United Services Institute, Dr. Hillier told CNN, “Israel” as “Israel” Seas Fire “Framework”, “Gateo was rarely an ironic.”

“The question is now, after the clear violations of the Israelis, what will be the answer to the United States? Will they use pressure to ensure the restriction, or are we seeing the breakdown of this break in the hostility only after signing? The heiler said.

Tensions arose as a second exchange of Israeli hostages and Palestinian prisoners. Despite the Israeli warning, the militant group used it for choreographs of a enthusiastic show.

The propaganda video released by Hamas released after the liberation of four Israeli hostages, in which the women were paraded in front of the crowd when they received their release and souvenir kicins certificates. CNN is not aware of the circumstances under which the hostages were speaking, including whether they are speaking hard.

In a three -minute video, all four women are seen sitting inside a van, smiling and ponder. These women were seen thanking Hamas military wing, al -Qaeda’s brigades, “for good treatment”, including food and water. He also thanked them for “protecting” them from shelling.

None of the four women are Arabic speakers. In the video, they can be heard speaking in a Hebrew tone.

Hamas propaganda videos have left a steep note in the past years. On October 7, 2023, the previous Hamas videos of the kidnapping of four soldiers went viral. The women were dressed in civilian clothes at the time of their taking, including Pijama when they were pulled from their bedroom. The videos showed them blood covered.

Hamas fighters are on January 25, 2025, before handing over a team from the Red Cross in Gaza City to a stage.

Experts say such deals are filled with complexities, especially when Hamas seeks to take advantage of Israel, and when the Israeli group tries to retrieve the hostages.

Yohanan Zoroff, a senior researcher at the Institute for National Security Studies (INS) in Tel Aviv, said concerns about violations, delays or crises come with any agreement with an organization like Hamas.

“Such concerns are in many past complaints between the two sides, numerous bloody disputes, and in fact, in a disgusting attack by Hamas on October 7,” Zorof said.

He said, “The issue of release of hostage became a test for both sides,” he said, adding that Israel “has to face a dilemma: the second purpose of eliminating Hamas fully achieved fully. How to secure the release of the hostages. ”
