Israeli newspaper Haaretz quoted informed sources today as saying that the detainees-captives deal will mature around the upcoming month of Ramadan, adding that "Israel" will make use of the upcoming weeks to implement its plans before that time. 

While the sources maintained that communications are still ongoing, they said it was still too early to determine if both parties will bring the deal into effect or halt it when the time comes. 

Israeli officials are having a hard time predicting how Benjamin Netanyahu will act at "the moment of truth" or if will blow up the deal with Hamas for "political, security and personal reasons," the sources explained.

Israeli response to the ceasefire deal

Palestinian sources disclosed to Al Mayadeen on Wednesday "Israel's" response to the Resistance's ceasefire proposal, which involves a three-stage plan with requests for several concessions but does not include the complete withdrawal of Israeli troops.

The first stage, according to the sources, will comprise a 35-day-long ceasefire and will have the possibility of being extended for an additional seven days.

The second stage could last 30 days, the sources added, noting that the third stage does not have a specified timeframe. 

Concerning the clause on troop withdrawal, the sources stated that "Israel" requested substituting the word "populated" with "heavily populated" to indicate that the troops would remain stationed in uninhabited areas

They further said that "Israel" rectified a clause about rehabilitating hospitals but not rebuilding them. 

Moreover, they agreed to suspend flights over Gaza for only six hours each day.

Resistance stands ground

Discussions that took place in Cairo regarding a captive-prisoner exchange deal between the Palestinian Resistance and the occupation entity were "positive", but no breakthrough was achieved, Israeli media reported on Wednesday.

In a similar context, an Al Mayadeen source part of the Palestinian Resistance revealed that the Israeli occupation is attempting to nullify the Paris proposal while focusing instead on getting back its captives without having to conform to any conditions by Hamas.

Our source affirmed that as much as the Resistance wants and is careful about achieving its goal, it will not allow the Israeli occupation to accomplish any of its aims noting its miserable failure across all battle axes.
