Hamas faces a critical decision as Israel prepares for a possible military operation in Gaza. Israeli Ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, stated that a cease-fire framework proposed by US Envoy Steve Witkoff could prevent a ground invasion if Hamas releases more than half of the 23 hostages still believed to be alive. Time is of the essence, as Israel intends to initiate its military plan if negotiations do not yield results soon, pushing for a cease-fire to allow humanitarian aid access through private firms rather than international agencies.
Israel is preparing a major operation in Gaza - we are not hiding it. We have ... the troops ready. If there will be no development in the negotiations, we will apply pressure - military pressure - in order to make sure that we bring back hostages and then eliminate Hamas.
Should Hamas agree, Israel would enter into a cease-fire with the terror group and send humanitarian aid into Gaza using private companies rather than international agencies like the UN or Red Cross.
