네타냐후 "인질석방 협상은 옳은 결정 하마스와 전쟁은 계속"

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has called on his government to back a deal that will see the release of some of the hostages taken by Hamas militants last month.
But he also made clear that the war against Hamas will continue even after a hostage deal.
Lee Seung-jae has more.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday called on his government to back a hostage deal that will see the release of some hostages taken by Hamas during the October 7 attack on Israel.
Netanyahu also told his government that it was a difficult decision, but the right decision and would enable Israel to go on fighting Hamas.
The Israeli Prime Minister also stressed the war would continue until Israel achieved all its goals, emphasizing that a hostage deal would not mean the end of the conflict.
Israel, however, continued its airstrikes on the Gaza Strip while negotiating with Hamas, through U.S. and Qatari intermediaries, to release hostages.
The Hamas-affiliated Shehab news agency reported Tuesday that Israeli forces attacked a residential apartment in Khan Younis in southern Gaza, killing 10 people and injuring 22.
Meanwhile, CBS News says the hostage deal will allow for an initial group of 50 hostages held by Hamas to be released in phases during ceasefire windows.
The proposed deal also includes a limited daily six-hour pause in fighting for four days.
If agreed upon, the deal will also see the release of Palestinian women and children held in Israeli detention centers, at a ratio of three released for each hostage held by Hamas.
U.S. President Joe Biden said Tuesday that a hostage deal is now very close.

"My team has been in the region suddenly shuttling between capitals. We’re now very close, very close. We could bring some of these hostages home very soon."
Sources say if the first phase of the hostage release goes as planned, roughly 20 more hostages will be released by Hamas, and the pause in fighting will be extended.
