Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Saturday that the cease-fire with Hamas won’t proceed unless the terrorist group—which has a track record of violating agreement terms—submits a detailed list of hostages to be released as part of the proposed deal.
“We will be unable to move forward with the framework until we receive the list of the hostages who will be released, as was agreed. Israel will not tolerate violations of the agreement. Hamas is solely responsible,” Netanyahu’s office said in a Jan. 18 post on social media platform X.
