In a significant development that may change the course of events, Channel 12 reported that the Israeli occupation's security system intends to request the cabinet, in its scheduled meeting on Sunday, to discuss a proposal for a prisoner exchange that Hamas had agreed to, and to push for its completion before any large-scale military operation in the city of Gaza.
According to the Hebrew media report, the leaders of the security system (the army, Shin Bet, and Mossad) will submit an official request to the political level to seriously discuss the proposal, considering it a real opportunity to return the detainees.
The most important point in the Hebrew channel's report is the time condition set by the security system, which is 'that the deal be completed before the occupation of the city of Gaza.' This condition means that the occupation's security leadership sees that entering into a large-scale ground military operation in the heart of Gaza City could close the 'window of opportunity' currently available to reach an agreement, and may endanger the lives of the detainees.
