Measurable demonstrations in Tel Aviv: Call of Peace and hostage

Tel Aviv (dpa) - While the Situation in the Gaza Strip remains tense, the voices of the protesters, which make an urgent demand for negotiations with Hamas and the release of hostages, are raised in Israel. According to reports, around 500,000 people gathered in the port city of Tel Aviv to demonstrate for a possible deal that could may announce the release of around 100 hostages in the violence of Hamas. These urgent calls reflect the desperate location of many affected people who demand the return of their relatives.

The relatives of a hostage killed in a recent Hamas attack said at the rally: "We are no longer allowed to sacrifice life, we must not sacrifice them (the remaining hostages). Your time is running." These emotional words illustrate the deep pain and anger of the relatives who worry about the fate of their loved ones. About a week ago the Hamas shot four men and a woman and left the corpses in a tunnel.

grief for lost life

The abyss of suffering that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict leaves is reinforced by the massacre on October 7 of last year. On this day, over 1,200 people were killed, and more than 250 were delayed as hostages in the Gaza Strip. According to Israeli numbers, 101 people still live in the violence of Hamas, although it remains unclear how many of them are still alive. While the families mourn for their relatives, negotiations on their release seem to have stalled.

The talks about a possible agreement, conveyed by the USA, Egypt and Qatar, have now been stuck. A planned multi -stage deal could not only include the release of the hostages, but also a termination of the war and a return of the Israeli military from the Gaza Strip. However, such an agreement could be seen as a long and stony path that must be decided with political compromises and the consent of both sides.

criticism of Netanyahus proceed

Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the same time faces criticism that he endangers the conclusion of such an agreement with excessive claims. His coalition, which also includes right -wing extremist parties, rejects all concessions to Hamas and calls for continuous military presence at strategic points in the Gaza Strip. This does not contribute to the formation of trust between the conflict parties.

William Burns, the head of the U.S. foreign intelligence agency CIA, has in the past emphasized that political will is essential for necessary progress. He announced that he would submit a more detailed proposal in the coming days, which could possibly be decisive for the progress of the negotiations. "There are an immeasurable thing at stake-also for the security of the entire Middle East region," said Burns during an event.

Hope for an agreement could burst slightly, even if the last proposal encounters resistance. The pressure on both sides grows, and the difficult path of diplomacy requires willingness to make hard decisions.

The painful reality in the Gaza Strip and the military conflicts in Lebanon illustrate the complexity of the region and the urgency of the peace process. The use of violence and the lack of microconsenses seem to unnecessarily extend the longing for a sustainable peace to the Middle East.
