Waffenstillstand zwischen Hamas und Israel in Sicht

Laut Information der katarischen Regierung steht ein Waffenstillstandsabkommen zwischen Israel und der Hamas unmittelbar bevor und soll am 19. Januar in Kraft treten. 

 

Über Reaktionen in Gaza und Tel Aviv berichtet der Guardian:

 

In Deir al-Balah in central Gaza on Wednesday night, people gathered to celebrate the news from Doha, cheering and dancing on dark streets without power. “Praise be to God, we will be free to live like human beings again soon,” a displaced father of four, Mohammed Azaiza, said.


In Tel Aviv, the mood was more sombre as protesters in favour of a deal gathered in a demonstration held to remind Israel’s leaders of their position.

 

Maoz Inon, an Israeli peace activist whose parents were killed on 7 October, told Al Jazeera: “It’s too late for my parents and thousands of people in Gaza and thousands of Israelis but this is what I’ve been calling for … a deal and the beginning of a peace process. I am happy for all those who will sleep well tonight and go back to their families.”

 

Israeli media reported that a first batch of hostages seized in the Hamas attack in October 2023 that triggered the war would be released on Sunday in exchange for Palestinians held in Israeli jails, and wounded people would be allowed to leave the Gaza Strip for medical treatment.
