Hamas declared it lost contact with 2 Israeli captives in the middle of Israel’s magnified tank attacks in Gaza City’s Sabra and Tel Al-Hawa locations, providing a 24-hour truce need to discover them. This advancement comes simply ahead of Netanyahu’s White House conference with Trump, who has actually made captive release a leading concern.
Critics argue Israel’s operations run the risk of the captives’ security, making complex Trump’s 21-point ceasefire strategy, which requires a 48-hour captive release, Israeli withdrawal, and Gaza’s demilitarization. Hamas rejects getting any proposition, implicating the U.S. of bypassing them, while Netanyahu stays doubtful of the strategy’s success.
