Divisions within Hamas leadership have developed regarding a proposal that would lead to a 6--week truce and a release of the approximately 130 hostages in Gaza, The Wall Street Journal reports.
Yahya Sinwar, the mastermind behind the October 7th attack who is believed to be hiding in the tunnel system in Khan Younis, has reportedly agreed to the proposal for aa six--week ceasefire which would mean more humanitarian aid and the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners in exchange for all civilian hostages,
However, Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh, who is located away from the fighting in Qatar, demands nothing less than a permanent ceasefire, a withdrawal of all Israeli troops from the Gaza Strip, and an international commitment to rebuild Gaza.
