Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): "Sharin Hiksel", Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Zionist regime, said: "The negotiation about the exchange of prisoners is ongoing and we hope to receive good news."
He continued: 33 hostages will be released as part of the prisoner exchange deal with the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas).
Hicksel added: "Donald Trump", the president-elect of the United States, has requested to reach an agreement before January 20.
He added: "I cannot reveal the details of the deal and we do not want to make statements that can affect the morale of the captives' families."
Channel 12 of the Zionist regime reported on Tuesday that the occupying government of Israel is considering reducing the stages of a possible cease-fire deal in Gaza and the exchange of prisoners to two stages instead of three stages in order to speed up the return of prisoners.
In this regard, Donald Trump said in a statement to Newsmax: "We are very close to a ceasefire agreement, and if this does not happen, there will be big problems."
Trump continued: We will reach a prisoner exchange agreement and the negotiations are over and the agreement may be announced at the end of this week.
According to this report, the families of Israeli prisoners once again gathered in front of the Knesset (Parliament of the Zionist regime) and demanded a deal to return all prisoners from Gaza.
Meanwhile, Israel's Minister of Public Security, Itmar Ben Gower, stated in a statement that the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas will lead to the release of hundreds of Palestinians from Israeli prisons, the return of thousands of Hamas members to the northern Gaza Strip, and the withdrawal of Israeli military forces from the Nitsarim axis. According to him, it will bring serious threats to the security of Israel and the residents of the Gaza Strip.
Referring to the possible consequences of this agreement, Ben Guer said: This deal not only does not lead to the release of all the prisoners, but also causes the fate of other people who were not included in this deal to be sentenced to death.
He added: This decision is not a "hard choice" to return the captives, but a dangerous choice for the lives of other Israelis who have to pay a heavy price for this decision.
He emphasized that Israel is well aware of the past experiences of such similar deals and there is no guarantee that promises will be fulfilled in future agreements.
Ben Guer especially emphasized the bitter experience of the past and the negative results of such agreements and stated that in previous wars, similar promises were made and lost regardless of their consequences.
He warned the Israeli cabinet that it should carefully examine the consequences of this agreement.
Furthermore, Ben Guer added: "Last year, with our political power, we managed to prevent the implementation of this deal many times, but now the Israeli cabinet is facing new changes in its composition, especially with the presence of Gideon Sa'er, who publicly supports this agreement." has done
He added: "The opposition parties are no longer able to influence on their own, and they can only prevent the finalization of this agreement if enough forces are gathered inside the cabinet to deal with it."
According to Tasnim, in a serious threat to the Prime Minister of Israel, Ben Guer said that if this agreement is implemented, the "Jewish Power" party, which he represents, cannot remain in the coalition and will resign from the cabinet.
At the same time, he emphasized that at the moment, the power of this party in the coalition is not enough to act as a pressure tool to prevent this deal, and for this reason, he asked the other leader of the extreme right-wing party, a member of the cabinet, Betsael Smotrich, the Minister of Finance of Israel, to This field should join him and if the agreement is finalized, they should withdraw from the ruling coalition.
This far-right minister of the cabinet ruling the occupied territories further emphasized: Even if we are in the opposition, we do not intend to overthrow Netanyahu, but this action is our only chance to prevent Israel from surrendering to Hamas. This decision is especially critical after more than a year of bloody fighting in which more than 400 Israeli soldiers have lost their lives.
Ben Guer also warned the Prime Minister of the Israeli regime that he should take the necessary measures to defeat Hamas and release the prisoners.
He suggested that the Israeli cabinet should completely stop the transfer of humanitarian aid, fuel, electricity and water to Gaza and continue the military destruction of Hamas to prevent future threats.
With the addition of Gideon Sa'er at the head of the New Hope party to the ruling coalition, the number of representatives supporting the cabinet increased from 64 to 68, and now only if both far-right parties (which have a total of 14 seats in the Knesset) resign from the coalition. The cabinet will be in crisis and the resignation of one of them is not enough to affect the macro trend of Israeli politics.
