Retired Israeli Navy commander Maj.-Gen. (res.) Eliezer 'Chayni' Marom expressed concerns over Hamas's actions in regard to the current ceasefire and hostage deal, fearing hidden concessions. Marom questioned whether Israel may have unknowingly compromised to some details that would allow Hamas to remain in power. He also responded to Trump's comments on Gaza, stating that mass voluntary displacement from the Strip is unlikely. Marom voiced deep concerns over Israel's approach to the ceasefire agreement with Lebanon, saying that the country locked itself into a fixed deadline. He also pointed to Iran's influence in Lebanon, describing Hezbollah as merely a tool for the country's regional ambition.
