Breaking: Hamas suspends Gaza hostage releases

Breaking News: Hamas has just announced an indefinite suspension of hostage releases, claiming alleged Israeli violations of the ceasefire agreement. This sudden and devastating decision leaves the fate of the remaining 76 hostages hanging in uncertainty, intensifying the pain and fear for their families.

In response, PM Netanyahu has urgently convened top security officials, rescheduling the security cabinet meeting to address this alarming development. Israeli officials have strongly denied Hamas’s accusations, calling them baseless and possibly an attempt to renegotiate terms.
