Israel Hamas News | Netanyahu Defiant Despite Four Days Of Protests Over Hostage Killings | N18G
Israel has erupted in rage over the deaths of six captives in Gaza, after the country’s military recovered their bodies nearly 11 months after they were taken by Hamas during the October 7 attacks. The military said the captives had been killed shortly before their bodies were recovered. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu blamed Hamas for the deaths, saying, “Whoever murders hostages doesn’t want a deal.”
But hundreds of thousands of people have been taking to the streets to protest against Netanyahu’s government, which they blame for its failure to secure a ceasefire deal in Gaza. A deal appeared to be close in late May, but Netanyahu added a series of new, non-negotiable conditions that have largely derailed talks.
Those conditions included keeping Israeli troops on the Philadelphi Corridor, bordering Egypt, and the Netzarim Corridor, which separates north and south Gaza.
Meanwhile, Israel has focused its attempts on freeing the captives through military operations rather than negotiations. In early June, Israel launched an operation that led to the rescue of four captives, but killed over 200 Palestinians.
This strategy has met rising criticism inside Israel. The recent recovery of the six bodies has only further fuelled the opposition to Netanyahu’s approach.
