Demands regarding the fate of hostages in Israel are intensifying. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
According to the DPA agency, relatives of Israeli captives held by HAMAS held a protest in front of the homes of six members of the Israeli government, including Defense Minister Israel Katz and Foreign Minister Gideon Saar. The protesters demanded that the ministers implement a ceasefire arrangement in the Gaza Strip clashes and reach an agreement with HAMAS to release the hostages.
In their statement, they emphasized, “We will not accept any further delays.” They also expressed the words, “Hear the voice of the people: stop this war and bring everyone home.”
On August 18, the AFP agency reported, citing its sources, that HAMAS accepted a new proposal to cease fire in Gaza without any changes. According to one of the sources, the agreement envisages a 60-day ceasefire and the release of captives in two stages.
However, Israeli leadership has not yet officially accepted the ceasefire proposal. Additionally, according to information, only about 20 out of 50 hostages may still be alive.
This situation is causing increased pressure on the government among the Israeli public. Experts and observers are paying close attention to how quickly political decisions are made and how the fate of the hostages will be resolved.
This issue holds an important place in the country's politics and social life.
