JERUSALEM (Reuters) – Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz said on Wednesday that Israel had pressured Hamas to the extent that a hostage deal with the Iranian-backed group might be possible.
Speaking to soldiers at an air force base in central Israel, Katz said that due to increasing military pressure, “there is a chance that this time we will really be able to advance a hostage deal”.
