Gaza cease-fire looks shakier as Israel, Hamas accuse each other of breaches

Hamas official Izzat al-Rishq condemned Israel’s postponement the discharge of the Palestinian prisoners and rejected Netanyahu’s accusations. “The occupation’s declare that “the handover ceremony is humiliating” is a false declare and a flimsy pretext aimed toward evading the settlement’s obligations,” he mentioned in a press release.

Israel and Hamas have continuously accused one another of violations because the Gaza cease-fire began on Jan. 19. On Feb. 10, Hamas postponed the discharge of extra Israeli captives, citing Israeli violations of the settlement. In response, Netanyahu warned that the cease-fire would finish if Hamas didn’t launch hostages as deliberate.
