US EditionHamas Proposes Deal for Five Hostages, Israel Rejects
- On May 26, 2025, Israel rejected a Hamas-backed proposal for a temporary ceasefire to release five Israeli hostages in Gaza, delivered via U.S. Backchannels.
- The proposal followed efforts by the Trump administration to open indirect talks with Hamas through Palestinian-American businessman Bishara Bahbah, aiming to secure hostages and a ceasefire.
- Key elements of the proposal included phased release of ten living hostages, return of sixteen bodies, and Israel’s withdrawal to prior Gaza positions while allowing humanitarian access.
- Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu expressed willingness to agree to a short-term ceasefire aimed at the release of hostages, but an Israeli official described the suggestion as inadequate.
- The rejection suggests continued military operations in Gaza amid ongoing indirect negotiations by the U.S., with hopes for a resolution but significant differences remaining between parties.
