An individual from Israel's ConThe Conflict Office cast uncertainty over the country's system for handing over prisoners held by Hamas, saying only a truce can free them, while the state leader dismissed the United States' rights to re-escalate its hostilities.
The statements by Gadi Eisenkot, former head of the armed forces, marked the latest sign of conflict among top Israeli authorities over the importance of the conflict against Hamas, now in its fourth month.
In his most memorable public explanations of the course of the conflict, Eisenkot said that ensuring that the many prisoners could be released involved more than just a truce, besides spreading "hoaxes" - an analysis by top state leader Benjamin Netanyahu, who heads the Office of Five-Party War and that demands that the pursuit of conflict will achieve its delivery.
Eisenkot's claims came as certain relatives of prisoners have escalated their fights, an indication of growing disappointment over the public authority's apparent lack of progress toward an agreement to hand over the remaining hostages.
Eli Shtivi, whose son Idan, 28, has been held in Gaza since he was captured by Hamas raiders during the Clan of Nova's live outside event on October 7, began a longing strike Friday night in front to Netanyahu's confidential beach house. border city of Caesarea. Shtivi vowed to eat only a quarter of a pita a day (the revealed daily feast of the prisoners) until the head of state consents to meet him. Many people joined him in what coordinators said was a short-term fight.
The other day, Israeli police armed with rifles fought with protesters who blocked a major highway in Tel Aviv to demand a quick deal to hand over prisoners. Police confined seven dissidents for short periods, according to Israeli media.
Meanwhile, mail began slowly returning to Gaza after a nearly eight-day power outage, the longest since the conflict began. The telephone and Internet blackout made it almost impossible for people in Gaza to communicate with the rest of the world or within the territory, hampering the delivery of philanthropic guidance and rescue efforts amid the Israeli bombardment.
For a week, Gaza's occupiers have been trying to get a signal on their phones. Many head to the ocean side, where some may find a non-Palestinian organization. With families dissipated in the small Mediterranean region, networks are critical to ensuring family members stay alive as Israeli airstrikes destroy their homes.
"The people behind me came to mind from their peers, relatives, friends and relatives," Karam Mezre said, alluding to others sitting with him on a rock next to the ocean in central Gaza, checking their phones.
In any case, when the mail does return, "it is irregular and not constant," said Hamza Al-Barasi, who was uprooted from Gaza City.
The power outage has also made it difficult for data to escape Gaza about daily passage and destruction by Israel's hostiles. The attack has hit much of the Gaza Strip, home to some 2.3 million people, as Israel vows to pulverize Hamas after its phenomenal October 7 attack on Israel. About 1,200 people, generally ordinary people, died in the assault, and another 250 were kidnapped. Israel has stated that more than 130 prisoners remain in Gaza, but it is not accepted that all of them are alive.
Israel's hostilities, one of the deadliest and most damaging military missions in history, have killed nearly 25,000 Palestinians, according to Gaza health experts, and wiped out more than 80% of the region's population.
Israel has also withdrawn all but a flow of supplies into the blockaded region, including food, water and fuel, sparking what U.N. officials say is a merciful debacle.
The United States, Israel's closest partner, has important areas of strength to provide and political help for the mission, but has progressively moved closer to Israel to reduce its attack and move toward designing a Palestinian state after the conflict, an idea which Netanyahu has sufficiently ruled out.
During a widely reported news conference on Thursday, Netanyahu reiterated his long-standing resistance to a two-state deal, saying Israel "should have a security command in the entire area west of the Jordan waterway."
On Friday, President Joe Biden and Netanyahu spoke by phone after a glaring nearly four-week gap in direct correspondence amid central contrasts over their dreams for Gaza once the conflict ends.
Biden, for all he cares, in Friday's call reaffirmed his obligation to continue helping the Palestinians move toward statehood.
Netanyahu and Defense Pastor Yoav Courageous have also said the fighting will continue until Hamas is crushed and maintain that major military activity can secure the release of prisoners.
In any case, observers have begun to question whether Netanyahu's goals are reasonable, given the slow pace of the hostile and developing global analysis, including accusations of massacre at the United Nations world court, which Israel strongly denies. Experts blame Netanyahu for trying not to delay investigations into legislative deceptions, taking care of his alliance and postponing the elections. Polls show that the notoriety of Netanyahu, who is being investigated over corruption allegations, has declined during the conflict.
Speaking on Israeli TV Station 12's analytical program "Uvda," Eisenkot said that Israeli prisoners "will possibly return alive in case there is an agreement, related to a critical respite in the battle." According to him, the sensational rescue efforts are far-fetched, since the prisoners are clearly fanned out, many of them in underground passages.
Ensuring that prisoners can be released by means other than an agreement "is spreading deceptions," said Eisenkot, whose son was killed in December while fighting in Gaza.
The Brave Guard cleric has said the troops weakened Hamas' order structure in northern Gaza, from which critical numbers of troops were withdrawn earlier in the week, and that the focus is currently on the southern part of the Gaza Strip. region.
However, Eisenkot also excused the idea that the military has dealt a definitive blow against Hamas.
"We have not yet reached an essential achievement, or rather something," Eisenkot said. "We did not end Hamas."
The group of attackers has continued to retaliate throughout Gaza, including in the most devastated regions, and has launched rockets towards Israel.
At his meeting, Eisenkot also stated that a negative cautionary signal against Hezbollah's civilian army in Lebanon was canceled without a second to spare during the start of the conflict. He said he was among those who opposed such a strike at an October 11 Bureau meeting that, he said, left him screaming.
Such an attack would have been an "essential mistake" and would likely have triggered a local conflict, Eisenkot said.
In a less than subtle analysis of Netanyahu, Eisenkot also said that key decisions regarding the course of the conflict should be made cautiously and that a conversation about a final plan should have started after the conflict began.
He said he analyzes every day whether he should remain in the War Office, which also includes Netanyahu, Chivalrous, former guard priest Benny Gantz and Ron Dermer, key firms serving in Netanyahu's government. Eisenkot is a parliament that is part of the Public Solidarity collusion resistance led by Gantz.
"I understand what my red line is," Eisenkot said when asked when he would stop. "It is associated with the prisoners, who are one of the targets, but on the other hand it is associated with the way we want to manage this conflict."
The conflict has spread across the Middle East, with Iranian-backed groups pursuing American and Israeli targets. Fighting between Israel and Hezbollah attackers in Lebanon leads to full-scale war, and Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen continue to focus on global supplies despite US-led airstrikes.
The United States on Friday launched its sixth negative mark against Houthi rebels in Yemen, eliminating the enemies with rocket launchers that were ready to fire, according to a US official who spoke about the secrecy status to examine continuing military activities. President Joe Biden has acknowledged that the siege of the attackers currently does not seem to be able to stop their attacks on delivery in the important Red Ocean corridor.
