Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has rejected a ceasefire proposal from Hamas, labeling the demands as “unrealistic” and “absurd.” The proposal included the release of women, children, elderly, and sick hostages taken by Hamas in exchange for Palestinian prisoners. Despite rejecting the proposal, Israel is sending a delegation to Doha, Qatar, to continue talks. Netanyahu has also approved military plans for an operation in Rafah, the southernmost city in the Gaza Strip, and ordered the evacuation of civilians there. The U.S. has expressed concern over a potential major offensive in Rafah without a credible plan for civilian safety. U.S. officials, including President Biden, have shown growing frustration with Netanyahu’s handling of the Gaza war, with some suggesting a tougher stance on Israel might be needed.
