Israel says that the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners is delayed “until the arriving hostages are released, and without degrading celebrations” in the field of handing over Israeli prisoners in Gaza.
The statement of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu came early on Sunday local time, where the military vehicles that were usually moved before the buses carrying prisoners left the open prison doors, only to wrap and return.
620 Palestinian prisoners were released for several hours and was supposed to happen after that Six Israeli hostages It was released on Saturday. It was supposed to be the largest release of one day in the first stage of the ceasefire in Gaza.
The declaration of Israel suddenly put the future of the armistice in more doubt.
The Palestinian Authority for Prisoners’ Affairs confirmed the delay “until further notice.” The Associated Press video in the West Bank showed the families of the prisoners, waiting in the open air in the weather near the freezing, and it appears to be dispersed. One woman is shown to cry.
Five of the six of the hostages who were released on Saturday were accompanied by convincing armed men in front of a crowd – a presentation criticized by the United Nations and the Red Cross as a cruise after previous deliveries.
The Israeli statement was martyred “with celebrations that touch the dignity of our hostages and the satirical use of the hostages for advertising purposes.” It is possible that it is a sign of a video clip of Hamas that shows the hostages that have not yet been released to watch a delivery in Gaza on Saturday and speak under duress.
The last six of the livelihoods were expected to be released under the first stage of the ceasefire, with a week staying in the initial stage. Talks about the second stage of the ceasefire have not started yet.
Among the six of three Israeli men were seized from the Nova Music Festival and took another during their visit to a family in southern Israel during a terrorist attack led by Hamas on October 7, 2023, which sparked a 16 -month war in Gaza. The other two were held for a decade from entering Gaza on their own.
Five in celebrations was delivered to a stage. In one, Over Wenkert, Omer Shem Tov and Eliya Cohen were launched alongside Hamas fighters. Shaim Tof, who behaves under coercion, kissed two militants on his head and died kisses for the crowd. They were wearing an imaginary uniform of the army, although they were not soldiers when they were kidnapped.
The Cohen family and their friends in Israel chanted, “Elia! Elia! Elijah!” He chanted.
Shaim told his parents, fathers, who are later, laughing and crying: “You are heroes.” “You don’t have any idea about how you dream of you.” His father told the owners of Shaim Tof, the public broadcaster that his son was being held alone after the first 50 days and lost 17 kilograms (37 pounds).
Earlier on Saturday, Tal Shuham, 40, and Evra Mingeto, 38, were released. Mininisto, an Israeli -Israeli, entered Gaza in 2014. His family told the Israeli media that he had struggled with mental health issues. The Australian Israeli Smile was taken from Kibbutz Be’eri. His wife and two children were released in the 2023 exchange.
Later, the Israeli army said that Hisham Al -Sayed, 36, was released. In 2015, Badwin Badwin entered Gaza. His family told the Israeli media that he had previously been diagnosed with schizophrenia.
The government of Israel did not answer questions about the delay in the launch of the prisoners. Hamas accused Israel of violating the ceasefire deal, with a spokesman for Abd al -Latif al -Qalami, accusing Netanyahu of “stopping intentionally.”
The hostage version follows a big conflict when Hamas handed over Thursday the wrong body Sherry drinkAn Israeli mother kidnapped her young boy. The remains are determined to be a Palestinian woman. Netanyahu pledged to take revenge on “harsh and malicious violation.” Hamas suggested that it was a mistake.
Israeli forensic authorities confirmed that the body that was delivered on Friday was Pepas. Dr. Chen Kogil, head of the National Criminal Medicine Institute, said that they had not found any evidence that Pepas and her children were killed in an Israeli air strike, as he claimed Hamas. Kogle did not give a reason.
Hamas denied the Israeli military prosecution, based on an unlimited criminal evidence and “intelligence”, that its militants killed the children “with their naked hands”, describing it as a lie aimed at justifying Israeli military actions against civilians in Gaza.
