Middle East, Hamas: "Hostages in coffins if the IDF tries to free them"

Milan, March 26 (LaPresse) – "Every time the occupation tries to recover hostages by force, it returns them dead in coffins." This was stated in a note by Hamas, which accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of "lying to the hostages' families when he claims that the military option can bring them home alive." This was reported by Al Jazeera. Hamas added that the violation of the ceasefire and the return to war in Gaza were a "premeditated decision" by Netanyahu, who succumbed to pressure from far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir. "Netanyahu is fully responsible for the failure of the agreement, and the international community and mediators must pressure him to stop the aggression and return to negotiations," the statement read.
