Hamas changed cease-fire deal to let them include bodies of dead hostages in prisoner swap: report
|
[NY Post] Raise your hand if you're surprised. Anyone? Bueller?
Hamas changed the language in the cease-fire deal it accepted Monday to count the bodies of dead hostages in a proposed swap for Palestinian prisoners, according to a shocking report.
The deal signed by Hamas also included an end to the war in Gaza — something the Israeli side said it would not accept.
But one of the biggest changes reportedly came in the language around the 33 Israeli hostages who were set to be released in exchange for a cease-fire.
While the original deal called for 33 living hostages, Hamas changed the wording to include 33 hostages "alive or bodies," officials told public broadcaster KAN TV.
Israeli officials have blasted the proposal as significantly different from what Israel had initially said it would agree to.
Hamas has repeatedly warned that it does not have enough hostages who meet Israel’s demands, which called for the release of hostages who are women, elderly or those suffering from illnesses and medical conditions.
The Hamas deal also contained wording that called for an end to the nearly seven-month long war, which goes against Israel’s hardened stance, a senior American official told CNN.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has repeatedly said that the war will not end until Hamas is eliminated, vowed to reject Hamas’ offer.
Despite Netanyahu’s plans, his office said Israel is still sending a negotiation team to Cairo "to exhaust the possibility of achieving an agreement on terms that are acceptable to Israel."
