☆ Opinion | Myth and Reality in Israel’s Hostage Negotiations
  + stars: | 2024-02-27 | by ( Dahlia Scheindlin | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Israelis were exhilarated when two hostages held by Hamas in Gaza since Oct. 7 were rescued this month in a daring raid by the Israeli military. It wasn’t just the thrill of seeing the hostages alive in their families’ arms. The rescue reminded many of Israel’s stunning hostage rescue in Entebbe, Uganda, in 1976, when more than 100 hostages from an airplane hijacked by militant Palestinians and Germans were freed. But the myth of invincibility Entebbe engendered was always flawed: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s own brother was killed in the raid. Today, there is no such military option for liberating hostages on a large scale, and the negotiation effort to release Israeli hostages from Hamas’s grip is not at all exhilarating.

A doctor inside Gaza’s Al-Shifa hospital has spoken to CNN about conditions inside the facility, accusing Israeli forces of pushing around staff and questioning them about Hamas. Israeli forces have been inside the hospital complex for days, looking to uncover what they say is a major Hamas underground base. Appealing for more international support, El Mokhallalati said Israeli forces had only made a single delivery of water and food to the hospital. Some context: Al-Shifa, the largest hospital in Gaza, has become a flashpoint in Israel’s war in the besieged enclave. The Israeli military alleges the facility is being used by Hamas as a shield for its operations and raided the hospital last Wednesday.

Israel ordered the evacuation of a city close to the Lebanese border, reflecting the Israeli military’s growing concern that a second front could open up to the north as it continues its bombing campaign in Gaza, including a strike on a church compound overnight. Israel’s Defense Ministry said residents of Kiryat Shmona, a city of some 22,000 people, will be moved to guesthouses provided by the state. The decision, announced Friday, comes as the security situation along the Lebanese-Israeli border deteriorates.

TEL AVIV—Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu signed a deal on Thursday to give an ultranationalist religious party oversight over the construction of West Bank settlements, a move that brings him closer to forming what could be the country’s most right-wing and religious government in its history. A minister from the Religious Zionism party led by Bezalel Smotrich will be placed within Israel’s Defense Ministry and be responsible for settlements inside the occupied West Bank, according to Mr. Netanyahu’s Likud party. The party said the minister from Religious Zionism in charge of settlements would need to act in coordination and with the approval of Mr. Netanyahu.
