In fact, after 471 days, Hamas showed its strength on the streets of Gaza. Hamas fighters wearing face masks in a white pickup truck went through the streets of Gaza waving weapons. During this, his supporters were also seen shouting slogans in enthusiasm. In fact, this is being considered as a direct message to Israel and the countries of the world that Hamas has not been destroyed. It has certainly suffered heavy losses, but Israel has failed to break its back.

What was the agreement between Israel and Hamas

Hamas’s objective in taking about 250 hostages during the attack on Israel on October 7, 2023 was to ensure the release of Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli jails. As Israel attacked Gaza, in response Hamas vowed not to return the hostages until Israel withdrew its forces from the enclave, permanently ending the war, and Gaza. Does not allow repopulating. After more than a year of fighting, Hamas and Israel have now reached a phased agreement that will include a 42-day ceasefire and the entry of aid, as well as the release of hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners. The agreement also opens the door to further negotiations that could lead to Israel’s full withdrawal from Gaza and a permanent ceasefire.

‘Surrender not compromise…’

Hamas’ chief negotiator Khalil al-Hayya said in a speech on Wednesday that Israel had failed to achieve its goals. Also praised Hamas’s armed wing, the Al Qassam Brigades, whose spokesman Abu Obaida has praised the war in Gaza as an ‘inspiration’ from which future generations will learn. Israel’s main goal was to eliminate Hamas, but this could not be done yet. On the other hand, some Israeli ministers, lawmakers and even some members of hostage families see the acceptance of the agreement as an Israeli defeat. Far-right Minister Itamar Ben Gvir and his party resigned from the government and the Knesset (parliament), calling the ceasefire a ‘surrender’. Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, a fellow right-winger, called it ‘disastrous’ and a group of army reservists called it a ‘surrender deal’.
