Israel gave Hamas 7 days to agree to the hostage deal

International Desk:  Israel has given seven days to the Palestinian armed group Hamas to agree to the hostage deal. They have threatened to launch an attack on Gaza's Rafah if no agreement is reached within this period.

On Friday (May 3), the influential US media The Wall Street Journal reported this information.

The media did not specify when this ultimatum was given. However, the report cited the statement of an Egyptian official. Which means - Israel has given Hamas until next Friday to agree to the agreement.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been threatening attacks on Rafah for months.

The Wall Street Journal reported that the deal proposal was handed over to Hamas leaders based abroad. Which was made by Egypt.

However, the influential leader of Hamas in Gaza, Yahya Shinawatra, has not yet said anything about the proposal. It is also not clear whether the new proposal has reached him. Because Sinawwar and other big leaders are staying in various tunnels in Gaza.
