SANA'A July 30. 2024 (Saba) - Negotiations on a ceasefire and prisoner exchange between the Palestinian resistance and the Zionist enemy entity have returned to the first square after the Rome negotiations revealed a major failure regarding the deal despite months of negotiations, as a result of the intransigence of the Prime Minister of the Zionist entity, Benjamin Netanyahu, in obstructing the deal negotiations and setting new conditions.
The American newspaper, The New York Times, reported on Sunday that the Rome negotiations stopped at issues including the extent to which the Zionist forces will remain in Gaza during the truce, whether they will leave the Philadelphi corridor, and setting checkpoints to prevent the return of those described as "militants" to the northern Gaza Strip.
It seems that Netanyahu is still evading and manipulating the issue of reaching an agreement under American cover and is setting new conditions to disrupt the deal and gain more time to prolong the war and keep his far-right government in power and escalate the conflict in the region.
Officials familiar with the deal reported that the Zionist enemy, after showing flexibility regarding the return of residents of the northern Gaza Strip to the area, stressed its rejection of this during the Rome talks, according to the newspaper.
According to what the Zionist enemy media reported from Zionist officials, Netanyahu is the main reason behind the occupying entity's hardline position in the Rome talks. They added: Senior security officials are pressuring him to show flexibility that would allow for a deal to be concluded and that no progress was made during the meeting with mediators in Rome, and that "the meeting in Rome was held for the sake of the meeting only."
The enemy media also reported that Netanyahu added a new condition, which is to obtain the names of the living prisoners who will be released.
A meeting was held yesterday, Sunday, in Rome between the directors of the American Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), William Burns, the head of the Zionist Mossad, David Barnea, the Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Qatar, Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, and the head of Egyptian intelligence, Abbas Kamel, to discuss the Zionist proposal to reach a swap deal.
The newspaper Haaretz quoted Zionist officials as saying that Netanyahu's demands that he introduced into the modified Zionist position may thwart the negotiations, referring to his insistence on preventing a return to northern Gaza.
Hamas sources said in statements that the movement does not accept Netanyahu's new conditions for completing the prisoner , detainee exchange deal and the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip. They stressed their adherence to the last paper presented to them, which was accompanied by American guarantees to stop the war.
The sources added, in conjunction with the Rome talks, that "Hamas agreed to the last paper, which is a Zionist paper to which the American administration made some amendments, after it received American pledges from the mediators that President Joe Biden would work to transform the agreement into a complete cessation of war."
“The approved paper did not include a link between the three stages of the ceasefire and the prisoner exchange stipulated in the paper,” it explained, noting that the movement “had serious concerns that Netanyahu would withdraw from the agreement after the first stage, which includes the release of Zionist civilians in exchange for agreed-upon numbers of Palestinian prisoners. However, the factor that favored the acceptance of this paper was the American pledges conveyed by the mediators, which stated that Biden pledged to make “Israel” move to the second and third stages, leading to sustainable calm in Gaza, i.e. stopping the war.”
Netanyahu presented new conditions for the Zionist paper that Hamas agreed to, the most important of which is finding a monitoring and inspection mechanism for the displaced people returning from the south to the north to ensure that there are no militants among them, to ensure that they do not transfer any weapons, and that the Zionist forces remain in the Philadelphi Corridor separating Gaza Strip and Egypt in the first phase, and that those forces remain in specific locations in the corridor separating the northern Gaza Valley and the center of the Strip during this phase.
Hamas officials confirmed their rejection of these demands, especially with the decline in the importance of American pledges in the prevailing electoral atmosphere in the United States.
Most members of the Zionist negotiating delegation refrained from participating in the meeting held on Sunday in the Italian capital, Rome, in protest against the new conditions that Netanyahu introduced into the agreement.
The new conditions and the change in the framework mean that negotiations for the release of the Zionist prisoners are not at the core of the concerns of the war criminal Netanyahu, who is committing crimes of genocide, ethnic cleansing and collective punishment in the Gaza Strip.
This position was clear in his speech before the US Congress on Wednesday evening, where he did not pay any attention to the deal, so much so that the opposition leader in the Zionist entity, Yair Lapid, considered that "it is a shame that Netanyahu spoke for an entire hour without saying that there will be a deal for the hostages."
With American support, the Zionist aggression on Gaza resulted in the martyrdom of 39,324 Palestinian citizens, the majority of whom were women and children, and the injury of 90,830 others, while thousands of victims are still under the rubble and on the roads, and ambulance and rescue crews cannot reach them, according to the Ministry of Health in Gaza.
