Israel and Hamas are said to have reached an agreement on the stalled Gaza deal. In the morning, many Israeli wants to say goodbye to the Bibas family killed in hostage.

According to the Islamists and Israeli media, Israel and Hamas have found a solution in the dispute over the continuation of the Gaza Agreement. The planned dismissal of Palestinian prisoners from Israeli prisons, which Israel had suspended a few days ago, should take place at the same time as the handover of further corpses of Israeli hostages. She didn’t call one time. There were initially no official confirmations from Israel. However, Israeli media cited civil servants who are supposed to be replaced by the Palestinian prisoners on Wednesday via the neighboring country of Egypt.

In the night of Sunday, Israel had announced that the dismissal of Palestinian prisoners intended in the ceasefire agreement with Hamas would be suspended for the time being. Before it can go on, the Palestinian terrorist organization must assure the humiliating ceremonies to avoid the release of Israeli hostages. 602 Palestinian prisoners are affected, who should have been released on Saturday in exchange for six Israeli hostages.

The continuation of the talks on the ceasefire agreement in the Gaza War had stalled over the dispute. According to its own statements, Hamas only wanted to continue negotiating when the prisoners are free. The four corpses that are now to be handed over should originally be transferred to Israel as part of the first phase of the first phase of the first phase of the first phase.

On Wednesday, a mother and her two little sons are also to be buried in Israel, who were hosted hostile to Hamas and all also had German citizenship. The ceremony of the Bibas family should remain private. However, the family asked to take part in a funeral procession beforehand to accompany the three on their last way, as the forum of the hostage members announced. According to reports, thousands of people are expected to the funeral march in the morning.

After a forensic examination of the corpses, the Israeli army announced that the two little boys Kfir and Ariel were brutally murdered by their kidnappers in November 2023. According to Hamas, they were killed in an Israeli air raid. Kfir was still a baby, his brother Ariel four years old at the time of his kidnapping and death.

The children and their mother became symbols for the horror of the massacre of October 7, 2023 in the south of Israel, in which 1200 people killed and 250 others were kidnapped as hostages in the Gaza strip. The unprecedented terrorist act triggered the Gaza war, in which tens of thousands of Palestinians were killed.

In the meantime, the Israeli opposition leader Jair Lapid has said to have presented a plan for the future of the Gaza Strip in the USA. The neighboring country of Egypt should take over the administration of the area for 15 years, Lapid said on platform X. In the period of the politician, the moderate authority of Palestinian President Mahmud Abbas in West Bank should enforce significant reforms in order to then reopen the Gaza Strip. The Islamist Hamas had torn power in the coastal area in 2007 and drove the autonomy authority from there.

Israel’s government, which has not yet presented a plan for the future of the Gaza Strip, initially did not comment on Lapid’s proposal. Before that, she had only shown great sympathy for the vague plan of US President Donald Trump to “move” all Palestinians from the Gaza Strip to other Arab states and to transform the destroyed coastal area into an economically flourishing “Riviera of the Middle East” .

Also from Egypt there was no official statement on Lapid’s proposal. According to the opposition politician, the Arabian country should be passed on to the Arabian country for consideration.

In the evening, Israel’s army reported an attack on members of the Hisbollah militia allied with the Hamas allied in the east of Lebanon. They worked in a camp for strategic weapons, which means a “blatant violation of the ceasefire agreements between Israel and Lebanon”. According to the Lebanese Ministry of Health, there were two deaths in the drone attack.

Israeli air strikes were also reported from Syria. According to Israel’s army, military goals were hit. “We will not allow southern Syria to become South Libanon,” said Israeli Minister of Defense Israel Katz. Any attempt by Syrian government forces or terrorist organizations to set themselves in the buffer zone will be answered with fire. Israel moved her own troops to the area between the Syrian Golan heights occupied by Israel and the rest of Syria.

Reports: US special messages shifts visitors

However, several Israeli media wrote, the US specialist for the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, will move his trip to the region planned for Wednesday. According to reports, he wanted to pave the way for the next round of indirect conversations between Israel and Hamas. His visit could therefore be made up for next week. The white house did not want to comment on the reports.
