Hamas says it will release three hostages on Saturday

  • While the risk of a ceasefire break has been real throughout the week, both sides are on track to reach a consensus that more hostages would be released by Hamas because of Israel’s “promise” not to obstruct the path of aid into Gaza. The peoples of the Arab League will hold a special summit in Egypt on 27 February to agree on a common position on the situation in Palestine.

In view of the failure to comply with the consensus on the basis of the ceasefire - mainly because Israel is obstructing the entry of aid into Gaza - the risk of breaking the truce has increased since the beginning of the week. However, Hamas reaffirms its determination to move ahead with the ceasefire if Israel complies with its obligations. This Thursday afternoon, Hamas, following the consensus, has confirmed that it will release more hostages on Saturday, precisely because Israel has made a "promise" not to obstruct the passage of aid into Gaza.

U.S. President Donald Trump threatens to let Israel turn Gaza into “hell” if Hamas does not make the next prisoner exchange.

Trump’s proposal to vacate Gaza is “unacceptable” to the Arab League

These are statements by Ahmed Abul Gheit, president of the Arab League: "We have fought for a hundred years against the idea of displacing the Palestinians, we will not give up now." The Arab peoples have spoken unanimously against President Donald Trump’s goal of emptying the Gaza Strip into a territory that the United States would control. In addition, Trump said in an interview with Fox News on February 10 that they will not be guaranteed the right to return home.

In line with Trump’s 5 February plan, Jordan and Egypt should welcome Palestinians expelled from their lands. The Arab League is clear that the ethnic cleansing they want to do today with the citizens of Gaza will be channelled tomorrow with the West Bank.

On February 11, he met with Trump, King Abdallah II of Jordan, and reiterated his "fervent opposition" to this proposal. In response, the President of the United States informed them that the subsidies will be cut off and distributed to Egypt and Jordan. After all, he informed her of his consent to receive "2,000 children who are mini-living and/or seriously ill".

The peoples of Arab Libya will hold a special summit in Egypt on 27 February to agree on a common position to be taken on the situation in Palestine.
