Hamas has proposed a 60-day ceasefire and a prisoner exchange with Israel, offering the release of 200 Palestinian prisoners in exchange for 28 hostages (10 alive, 18 deceased). The proposal also includes a partial withdrawal of Israeli forces and increased humanitarian aid access in Gaza. However, Israel’s position is clear: the war will only end when all 50 hostages in Gaza (20 of whom are alive) are released. While the general public is calling for a ceasefire, Netanyahu faces pressure from hardline coalition allies. Civilian casualties and a humanitarian crisis continue unabated in Gaza.
