CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: In a major development, a senior Hamas official has stated that the group is willing to release all hostages in exchange for a five-year truce in Gaza. The announcement signals a possible turning point in the prolonged conflict that has caused immense suffering for civilians on both sides. According to reports, Hamas has conveyed this offer through indirect negotiations, seeking an extended ceasefire that could lead to greater stability in the region.
The proposed deal would involve the release of all Israeli and foreign hostages held in Gaza in return for an easing of the blockade and assurances of non-aggression. International mediators have welcomed the possibility of a long-term truce, viewing it as a chance to prevent further bloodshed and start rebuilding efforts in the war-torn area. However, officials warn that significant hurdles remain, including securing agreement from all parties involved.
Israeli authorities have yet to officially respond to the proposal. The humanitarian crisis in Gaza has intensified calls for a peaceful resolution, and the potential for a five-year ceasefire offers a glimmer of hope. If realized, the truce could mark a significant step toward ending one of the world’s most entrenched conflicts.
