Israel has postponed the release of Palestinian prisoners until Hamas meets its conditions, highlighting the fragility of the Gaza ceasefire. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office stated that Israel is waiting for the release of the next hostages to be assured without 'humiliating ceremonies.' Hamas has been criticized for making hostages appear on stage and carry coffins through crowds. Israel accused Hamas of violating the ceasefire, while Hamas accused Israel of the same. The ceasefire has brought a pause in the fighting, but talks on the next phase and a definitive end to the war are yet to begin.
