Broad segments of Israelis are calling for Prime Minister Netanyahu to agree to a ceasefire and prisoner exchange deal, reflecting a rare consensus among military leaders and international ambassadors. Explore the growing demands for peace in the Gaza Strip.


Broad segments of Israelis are now demanding that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu agree to a ceasefire agreement and the release of detainees amid ongoing tensions in the Gaza Strip. A consensus appears to have emerged among Israeli army commanders, public opinion, and ambassadors from the United States, Britain, Germany, and even Iran, all advocating for a ceasefire. This unprecedented alignment highlights the urgency of the situation and the widespread desire for peace.

A recent opinion poll from the Israeli Democracy Institute indicates that a significant portion of Israelis supports a comprehensive agreement to release all prisoners in exchange for halting the war. The heads of Israel's internal security services, Shin Bet, and intelligence services, Mossad, have urged Netanyahu to accept this deal. However, there are concerns that Netanyahu may be obstructing the negotiations due to disagreements with intelligence leaders over specific provisions of the proposal.

On the international front, European ambassadors have jointly called for negotiations, emphasizing that a ceasefire agreement is still within reach. The United States also affirmed that achieving a ceasefire is possible. In light of these developments, families of Israeli prisoners have been vocal in their demands for the Prime Minister to empower the negotiating team to finalize an agreement. While some may question whether agreeing to a deal equates to surrender, the prevailing sentiment suggests that the cost of continued conflict is too great.
