Hamas says it will relase 6 hostages for a 60 Day cease fire and resumation of aid to Gaza…
Israel has INCREASED attack’s in Gaza….
Netanyahu IS on record as saying he wants to Destroy Hamas….
Not make much of a deal….
Hamas has proposed releasing more hostages under a new Gaza ceasefire deal, after new negotiations were held on Saturday. The talks began hours after Israel’s military launched a major new offensive in the Gaza Strip.
Hamas has agreed to release nine hostages in exchange for a 60-day truce and Israel releasing Palestinian prisoners, a Palestinian official told the BBC.
The official said the new proposed deal would also allow the entry of 400 aid trucks a day, and the evacuation of medical patients from Gaza. Israel, in turn, has demanded proof of life and detailed information about all remaining hostages.
The new round of ceasefire talks is being held through Qatari and US mediators in Doha, and began on Saturday afternoon local time.
Israel is yet to respond publicly to the proposed deal, but said prior to the talks that it would not withdraw troops from Gaza or commit to an end to the war.
The proposal would not include these elements, the BBC understands.
Israel’s military announced the launch of a new offensive named “Operation Gideon’s Chariots” earlier on Saturday, amid the deadliest wave of strikes in Gaza in months.
At least 300 people have been killed since Thursday, rescuers say, including at hospitals and refugee camps in the north and south of the Strip.
Thousands have died since Israel resumed strikes on 18 March, following the collapse of a fragile ceasefire which lasted two months.
Aid agencies say Gaza’s grievous humanitarian situation has also worsened, as Israel has been blocking supplies of food and other aid from entering the territory for 10 weeks….

Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had said on 5 May that Israel was preparing an “intense entry into Gaza” to capture and hold territory, but that it would not commence until Trump completed his tour of the Middle East. He left the region on Friday.
That day, residents across northern and central Gaza were told to leave their homes or places of shelter – an order aid workers say is almost impossible because many have already been repeatedly made homeless during the war.
The IDF said on Saturday it wouldn’t stop operating “until Hamas is no longer a threat and all our hostages are home” and that it had “struck over 150 terror targets throughout the Gaza Strip” in the preceding 24 hours.
