HAMAS Surrenders? Ready To Free ALL Hostages After IDF Killings In Gaza Ops But On This Condition

In a major development, Hamas says it is ready to release all Israeli hostages if a deal can be reached to end the war in Gaza. Senior official Taher Al-Nunu stated that the group seeks a serious prisoner swap, a full Israeli military withdrawal, and unrestricted humanitarian aid. Talks are ongoing in Cairo with mediators from Egypt, Qatar, and the U.S. involved. However, Hamas accuses Israel of stalling negotiations by refusing to commit to a sustainable ceasefire plan. The proposal now includes phased releases backed by U.S. guarantees. #Hamas #Israel #GazaWar #Ceasefire #HostageCrisis #MiddleEast #PrisonerSwap #TaherAlNunu #GazaStrip #IsraelGazaConflict #PeaceTalks #CairoTalks #QatarMediation #EgyptDiplomacy #USInvolvement #HumanitarianCrisis #EndTheWar #IsraelWithdrawal #WarInGaza #BreakingNews #HostageDeal #CeasefireNow #WarUpdate #GazaUnderFire #IsraelNews #InternationalMediation #GazaCeasefire #MiddleEastConflict #PeaceEfforts #HostageNegotiations Also Read Air India Flights flew Over Iranian Airspace Just Before Israeli Attack :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/air-india-flights-flew-over-iranian-airspace-just-before-israeli-attack-3801055.html?ref=DMDesc Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh Resigns Amid Israel Conflict :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/palestinian-prime-minister-mohammad-shtayyeh-resigns-amid-israel-conflict-3759891.html?ref=DMDesc US Begins Delivery of Munitions and Military Equipment to Israel | Washington AP :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-begins-delivery-munitions-military-equipment-israel-gen-3655257.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~GR.125~
