Hamas Negotiations and Demands
Negotiating with Hamas for the release of hostages is a complex process, with messages and demands constantly changing. While initially there was bravado and a focus on liberating Palestine, Hamas has recently hinted at the possibility of a ceasefire and even a small prisoner exchange. However, the exact conditions for a deal remain unclear, and Hamas still holds the belief that they can free Palestinian prisoners from Israeli jails. The ultimate goal for Hamas is the release of all Palestinian prisoners and the international recognition of their cause.
