As Gaza ceasefire talks intensify, Hamas is pushing for the release of its most high-profile prisoners held by Israel, including Marwan Barghouti, the widely popular Palestinian political figure seen as a unifier between Fatah and Hamas. Israel remains firm, citing Barghouti’s role in deadly attacks during the 2000 Intifada, while Hamas insists these leaders are essential for any broader hostage exchange and peace deal. The international community watches closely as negotiations try to balance security, political pressures, and the release of hostages. Could the release of these senior militants reshape Gaza’s political and militant landscape?
