The Israeli Ainaf Tasnjoker, the mother of the detainee, Mattan Tsanjoker, expressed her hope that the recent American initiative would represent a real opportunity to end the suffering of the families of the prisoners, stressing that it will not allow this opportunity to be missed to return their children and stop the war that has continued since October 2023.
Tsanjoker, who spoke from Jerusalem, stressed that the time has come to return the living detainees to their homes and enable them to build their lives again, and to bury the dead with dignity after two years of war, and demanded the two parties (the Israeli and the Palestinian) to acknowledge that the time has come to stop this tragedy.
She explained that the sit -in of the families of the detainees in Tel Aviv will continue until the release of all the kidnappers, noting that their survival in the protest tent reflects their loss of confidence in the intentions of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to complete the deal until its end.
She added that the families that spend the days of the “throne” in temporary tents decided to continue the sit -in and not to leave before the return of their children, stressing that this time it will not be allowed to waste the opportunity to reach an agreement that restores the detainees, and puts an end to the ongoing war.
The mother of the detainee linked between reaching the deal and ending the military operations, saying that civilians on both sides of the border in Gaza and Israel deserve to live without bombing or fear, noting that the plan of US President Donald Trump includes clear items that guarantee the obligations of the two parties, with a fundamental role of mediators such as Qatar in ensuring its implementation.
She stressed that families are not only demanding the return of their children, but a comprehensive stop of the war, as “the war must end, because mothers and fathers here, and in Gaza live the same pain.”
Regarding her fears of obstructing the completion of the deal, Tsantoker expressed its concern about the repetition of what she described as “deliberate missing” by the Israeli government in previous deals, accusing Netanyahu of “prevented the implementation of agreements that could have been returning the kidnappers”, considering that he left her son in the detainee for a long time.
She emphasized that Hamas has been holding her son Mattan from the first day of the war, but she – she said – “preserves his life,” adding that she still hopes that he will not be hoped for hope, and that he is treated with humanity “from the premise that he is a human being above all.”
Although two years have passed since contact with her son, Tsangeoker says she is convinced that he is still alive, adding: “I know that Hamas is keeping my son’s life, and I know that a living is alive, so I will not stop calling for his return.”
She emphasized that the families of the detainees adhere to hope, despite the continuous Israeli raids on Gaza, adding that every moment passes without a new agreement means more pain for mothers on both sides, and that “the time has come for everyone to regain their children, and the dead are buried in peace.”
Trump put his plan on Gaza, which provides for a ceasefire and the release of Israeli prisoners within 72 hours of Israel’s approval, in exchange for the movement of the movement.
Hamas said in its statement that it had agreed to the release of all the neighboring Israeli detainees and the dead, and also renewed its preparation for the delivery of the sector administration to an independent Palestinian body (technocrat), who supervises Gaza’s affairs within the national and Arab and Islamic consensus.
