Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will be delaying the release of Palestinian prisoners from Israeli prisons after Hamas has repeatedly broken its ceasefire agreement. Among the latest despicable acts conducted by Hamas was its “humiliating hostage-freeing ceremonies,” which included tormenting two hostages by forcing them to sit and watch as other hostages were released. Netanyahu made the announcement Sunday: “In light of Hamas’s repeated violations, In particular, the humiliating ceremonies that insult the honor of our hostages, as well as the cynical use of hostages for propaganda purposes, it was decided to delay the release of terrorists scheduled for yesterday until the release of the next hostages without humiliating ceremonies is guaranteed," Netanyahu said. At the same time, the armed wing of Hamas released a video, allegedly made in Nuseirat, in the central Gaza Strip, showing two Israeli hostages watching the release of three other hostages over the weekend, the international news agency AFP reported. According to the outlet, the two hostages, identified as Evitar David, 23, and Guy Gilboa-Dalal, 23, were wearing identical long-sleeved shirts while watching the release of the three hostages from a car and begged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the video to release them. The two young men were kidnapped on October 7, 2023, from the "Nova" music festival in southern Israel. According to the "Hostage Families Forum", the fact that the two men are being forced to watch the release of other hostages is a display of cruelty and a particularly disgusting scene: "Evitar and Guy and dozens of other hostages were tragically excluded from the current phase of the Gaza hostage release in exchange for the release of Palestinian detainees by Israel," the organization added. The ceasefire, which came into effect on January 19, allowed the release of 25 hostages and is to end on March 1. Hamas released six hostages over the weekend and Israel was to release 620 Palestinian prisoners in exchange. Hamas claims Netanyahu’s delay in releasing the prisoners is a blatant violation of the ceasefire agreement.
