Negotiations in Qatar are at an impasse - and Israel is sending a clear signal to Hamas
Saturday, 2 December 2023 Benjamin Netanyahu's decision to summon his Mossad negotiating team home from Qatar means that Israel has taken the decision that Hamas either is not interested in another truce or they are not providing anything that would satisfy the Israelis that it is worth making concessions.

Seven months into the conflict triggered by Hamas's October 7 attack, Israeli forces are engaged in fierce battles with Palestinian militants in Gaza, focusing on Rafah near the Egyptian border and new flashpoints in northern and central areas. An incident of friendly fire in Jabalia resulted in the deaths of five Israeli soldiers and injuries to seven others. Despite heavy fighting and Israeli airstrikes across Gaza, Prime Minister Netanyahu has ordered an offensive in Rafah, claiming mass evacuations have prevented a humanitarian catastrophe. He emphasised that planning for Gaza's future governance is premature until Hamas is defeated. Defense Minister Yoav Gallant countered by calling for Palestinian entities, supported by international actors, to govern Gaza post-conflict. Meanwhile, Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh declared that Hamas and other Palestinian factions would determine Gaza's governance, reiterating demands for a permanent ceasefire and the lifting of the siege. The conflict has resulted in significant casualties, with 278 Israeli troops and at least 35,233 Palestinians killed, and has led to severe shortages of essential supplies in Gaza.

In a significant political challenge to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant urged Netanyahu to make difficult decisions for non-Hamas governance in Gaza, warning that the current war gains are at risk and Israel's long-term security is endangered. Gallant strongly opposed Israeli civil or military rule in Gaza, advocating instead for governance by non-Hamas Palestinian entities with international support. He stressed the urgent need for a viable alternative to Hamas to prevent the group from regrouping and undermining Israel's military achievements. Gallant called for Netanyahu to publicly reject the idea of continued Israeli control in Gaza, warning that indecision could lead to detrimental options: continued Hamas rule or Israeli military governance. He emphasised the importance of political action alongside military efforts and the critical role of all government departments in achieving this goal.

Hamas criticised US President Joe Biden on Sunday for linking a Gaza cease-fire to the release of Israelis held captive by the Palestinian group. Biden stated on Saturday that a cease-fire in Gaza could occur as soon as “tomorrow” if Hamas released Israelis in its custody. Hamas deemed this stance as a step backward from the outcomes of previous negotiations. They noted that their approval of a proposal, facilitated by mediators from Egypt and Qatar, had been done with the knowledge of the United States.

Hamas has accepted a ceasefire proposal from Egypt and Qatar. At the same time, Israel continues its bombing campaign in eastern Rafah despite not accepting the ceasefire terms. Reports indicate that around 100,000 Palestinians in Rafah have been asked to evacuate. Ismail Haniyeh, representing Hamas, informed Qatari and Egyptian officials of the group's approval of the ceasefire. However, Israel's Prime Minister Netanyahu's office stated that the proposed deal falls short of Israel's demands but will still send a delegation for negotiations.

Hamas has been planning to establish a covert base in Turkey and other terror cells to coordinate attacks against Israeli targets, including NATO members, according to a document captured by the IDF in Gaza, reported by The Times. The document, found in the home of a key Hamas leader’s chief of staff, outlines a strategy to create secret bases to bolster resistance forces and conduct intelligence and military operations. The plan includes targeted assassinations, sabotage of Israeli naval vessels, and kidnappings. The Turkish government, supportive of Hamas, labels it a "liberation group." President Erdogan has harshly criticised Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, stating his methods would make "Hitler jealous." Erdogan also announced that over 1,000 Hamas members are being treated in Turkish hospitals and expressed disappointment over Greece’s stance that Hamas is a terrorist organisation. Despite public support, Erdogan denies that Hamas conducts terrorist operations from Turkey.
