Things seem to have moved after the Cabinet meeting this morning, but there are some pretty big caveats:

[The announcement] will stipulate the need for the release of all the hostages still held by Hamas and be based on a guarantee the terror group no longer rules Gaza, sources say.

Also made me wonder how Starmer’s conversation with Trump went yesterday. Not good?

    You can’t call people who got arrested by israel in land that doesn’t belong to them prisoners. They may not be hostages but them being abducted is a fact

      My argument is that they’re not hostages, so I’m glad we agree.

      I don’t know why you’ve introduced this new argument about whether they’re ‘prisoners’ but I suggest you take it up with, e.g., The Palestinian Prisoners Association.
