In a speech to Israeli military officers on Sunday, Netanyahu laid out four maximalist conditions for ending the war: the return of all Israeli hostages, the removal of Hamas from power in Gaza, the dismantling of the militant group’s fighting force, and the demilitarisation of the territory.

Since the deal was struck, there’s been a vibe shift in Israel. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is buoyed by the return of US President Donald Trump and under pressure from far-right members of his own cabinet to return to war. The Gaza ceasefire looks increasingly like it may end up being a fleeting interlude.

President Trump’s Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff, who previously helped seal the first phase of the deal, is heading to the region to push for its continuation.

Israel and Hamas have reached an agreement to exchange the bodies of dead Israeli hostages for the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners, keeping the fragile ceasefire deal intact for at least a few more days.

Israel has agreed to release Palestinian prisoners who were due to be freed last week in exchange for the bodies of four Israeli hostages, Egyptian state-linked media reported, as Washington's top Middle East envoy said talks for a second phase of a Gaza ceasefire deal remained on track.

Latest news as six hostages were released as part of the Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal but Palestinian detainees and prisoners were not.

Hamas - which is proscribed as a terrorist organisation by Israel, the US, UK and other countries - denounced Israel's decision as a "blatant violation" of the deal and warned US, Qatari and Egyptian mediators that there could be no talks on extending the ceasefire until the prisoners were released.

Hamas and Israel may not proceed in the talks for the next steps in a ceasefire deal. This comes as both sides make demands on hostage and prisoner releases. CBS News' Debora Patta reports.
