Hamas threatens to EXECUTE hostages unless its demands are met - as IDF inches closer to terror chief's Gaza stronghold and Israeli official hints brutal fighting could last MONTHS
Hamas has threatened to execute hostages unless Israel meets its demands, as Benjamin Netanyahu issued a warning to the terror group to surrender immediately or face certain death.
Hamas spokesman Abu Obeida made a chilling threat to Israel and what he called 'its arrogant leadership' on Sunday, vowing that it would not get its hostages back alive 'without an exchange and negotiation and meeting the demands of the resistance.'
As the two sides traded blows, hopes for a ceasefire were wearing thin, with Israel hinting that it is willing to continue its bitter fight for months or longer to completely eradicate Hamas and mediator Qatar saying willingness to negotiate is fading.
Israel declared war following the sickening October 7 attack by Hamas and other groups, which saw 1,200 people killed and around 240 dragged back to Gaza as hostages. More than 18,000 have been killed in Gaza, Hamas authorities say.
Over 100 women and children being held by Hamas were freed during a weeklong ceasefire late last month, which saw three Palestinian prisoners released from Israeli jails for every one hostage handed back.
