Israel has proposed a deal which would offer safe passage to Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar in return for the release of all the remaining hostages according to an Israeli official.
Speaking to Bloomberg, Israel’s Coordinator for Hostages and the Missing Gal Hirsch said Israel had already offered the possibility of giving Sinwar safe passage out of Gaza.
Hirsch first mentioned the idea with CNN’s Jessica Dean on Sunday saying that if all remaining 101 hostages are returned, “We will agree to build safe passage to the chief terrorist, the new Hitler, Sinwar – safe passage to him and whoever he wants to join him out of Gaza.”
Hirsch said if Hamas released the hostages and Gaza could be “demilitarised and deradicalised,” the war could come to an end.
