Israel Rejects Hamas Five-Year Truce Proposal, Citing Security Concerns
by Emmitt Barry, Worthy News Correspondent
(Worthy News) – An Israeli official told the Jerusalem Post on Monday that there is “no chance” Israel will accept a proposed five-year truce with Hamas currently being discussed by Arab mediators, rejecting it as a plan that would allow the terror group to “rearm, recover, and continue its war” against Israel.
The proposal, reportedly offered by Hamas in exchange for the release of all remaining hostages, was described by a Hamas source as a one-time prisoner exchange for a five-year cessation of hostilities. However, Israeli officials have firmly opposed any deal that leaves Hamas’s military capabilities intact, calling it a non-starter.
Deputy Foreign Minister Sharren Haskel emphasized that the war could end immediately if Hamas agreed to release the 59 hostages and surrender its weapons. Hamas leaders, however, have insisted their arms are “not open to negotiation,” and demand an end to the war, full Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, and the influx of humanitarian aid.
Meanwhile, the Hostages and Missing Families Forum criticized the Israeli government for lacking a clear plan to secure the hostages’ release, urging officials to meet directly with the families rather than addressing the media.
Despite Egyptian sources claiming a “significant breakthrough” in ceasefire talks, Israeli officials quickly denied any meaningful progress, reiterating that no agreement would be possible without the full disarmament of Hamas.
