“One hundred days of captivity in Gaza is really too much,” Blinken said. During a ceasefire in late November, Hamas released 105 hostages, but Israel says another 132 people are still being held captive by the terrorists. The number may not be entirely accurate as some of the hostages may be dead.
Blinken’s comments on the 24,000 dead (Palestinians), half of them children. Shame on those who continue to be complicit and do not demand an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.” In this context, the Palestinian leadership mentioned not only Blinken, but also US President Joe Biden or the US Ambassador to the United Nations.
It has been completely overlooked that Israel is fighting in Gaza because of an attack by Hamas and Islamic Jihad, whose members killed 1,200 people and kidnapped another 240. Israel cites the release of hostages and the end of the rule of the terrorist movement Hamas as the aim of its military operation in the Gaza Strip. However, it continues to resist.

The head of Hamas’s political wing, Ismail Haniya, stated: “We need the blood of (Palestinian) women, children and the elderly to awaken the spirit of our revolution in us.” Another leader of the terrorist movement, Musa Abu Marzouk, admitted openly admitted in an interview that protecting Palestinian civilians was not a problem for Hamas. When asked whether there were shelters for the civilian population in the Gaza Strip in addition to the tunnels for the fighters, he replied: “The fate of the people in Gaza is not our responsibility.” They are refugees, it is up to the UN to take care of them to take care of them.”
Meanwhile, the White House signaled on Sunday that “the time has come” for Israel to scale back its military operations in Gaza. John Kirby, spokesman for the US National Security Council, told CBS that the US had spoken to Israel “about transitioning to a lower-intensity operation.” “We are convinced that the time for this change has come. “We talked to them about it,” Kriby said.
It was clearly Kirby’s reaction to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s statement on Saturday in which he reiterated that the war would last “to the end, to complete victory, that is, to the elimination of Hamas and the return of all our hostages.” .
