Now, peace talks will happen as Israel continues to join Israeli Prime Minister Pamel Hamas Benjamin Netanyahu Announced on Tuesday in a new military offensive campaign in Gaza.
“From now on negotiations will only resume under combat,” Netanyahu said in a brief public message.
Resist Prime Minister of Israel Hamas said that Hamas “rejected” interaction and returned to the hostages while accusing him of fighting for his political survival and accused the media of “echoing) Hamas’ propaganda.”

“I heard the commentators were reporting on the studio, as if the IDF’s advice and IDF actions were derived from political considerations,” he said.
“They have no shame. They have no red lines. They responded to Hamas’ propaganda time and time again.”
Netanyahu continued: “When we did not receive any hostages, we extended the ceasefire for several weeks. We sent our delegation to Doha. We sent our delegation to Cairo. We made suggestions with the mediator. We accepted the proposal from the U.S. Envoy (Steve) Witkoff.
Israeli troops launched a massive bombing campaign on Tuesday, breaking the ceasefire that has been on the verge of fire since late January. According to Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry, the offensive mission killed at least 404 people, which would make it one of the deadliest days since October 7, 2023, even if it is true.
“I want to assure you: this is just the beginning,” Netanyahu said.
Meanwhile, Israel said it intercepted a missile from Yemen’s Hotis on Tuesday night after a 30-targeted strike against the U.S.-led offensive strike over the weekend.

Netanyahu said in his statement that Israel is “changing the face of the Middle East.”
“This has been proven over the past few months – military pressure has brought hostages – we have brought many of them home.”
The Prime Minister claims that Hamas should blame “every civilian casualties.”
“Israel does not target Palestinian civilians. We target Hamas terrorists. When these terrorists are embedded in civilian areas, when they use civilians as human shields, they are the people responsible for all accidental casualties.”
“Palestinian civilians should avoid contact with Hamas terrorists, and I call on the people of Gaza to get out of their predicament. Move to safer areas. Because every civilian casualty is a tragedy, and every civilian casualty is Hamas’ fault.”
The IDF and the Israel Security Agency (ISA) said in a joint statement that their air strikes eliminated Essam al-Da’alis, the “most supreme authority figure in the Gaza Strip.”
The Israel Defense Forces and ISA also determined with a “high probability” that the Israeli strike eliminated the Minister of Home Affairs, Mahmoud Marzouk Ahmed Abu-Watfa, responsible for Hamas’ internal security forces; Bahajat Hassan Mohammed Abu-Sultan, head of Hamas’ internal security forces; and Ahmed Amar Abdullah Alhata served as Hamas’ attorney general.
The White House supports Israel’s renewal of the bombing movement, even as European leaders condemn them.
“Hamas could have released the hostages to expand the ceasefire, but chose to reject and war,” National Security Council (NSC) spokesman Brian Hughest told Fox News figures.
Netanyahu thanked Trump for his “unwavering support.” “Our alliance with the United States has never been more powerful.”
During a two-month ceasefire, 33 hostages were returned to Israel in exchange for nearly 1,800 Palestinian prisoners.
Although Israel believes that about 35 of them died, about 59 hostages are still in captivity in Hamas.
