PNN – The Israeli Minister of War once again threatened Hamas, saying: Israel will intensify its attacks on Gaza to free the prisoners. If the Israeli prisoners are not released, more territory from Gaza will be seized.
According to the report of Pakistan News Network, quoting Israel Hayom, (Friday) Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz once again threatened Hamas with escalating the war in Gaza and displacing residents.
According to this report, the Israeli Minister of War, while threatening Hamas and increasing pressure on the movement, called on the regime’s army to increase its attacks on the Gaza Strip, so that, following the displacement of its residents, they can seize more of Gaza and expand the security buffer zones around Gaza.
In this context, Katz claimed that Israel will continue Operation “Might and Sword” in Gaza until all Zionist prisoners are released. He threatened Hamas, saying: If this movement insists on its refusal to release the prisoners, the Zionist army will seize more territory in Gaza.

The Minister of War, referring to the Zionist regime’s welcome of the plan of Steve Witkoff, Donald Trump’s representative, during a temporary ceasefire (without guaranteeing a permanent ceasefire), emphasized Trump’s forced displacement plan as part of the lever of pressure on Hamas. Witkoff’s plan emphasizes the release of prisoners, whether alive or dead.
He added: The Zionist regime adheres to the Witkoff plan without jeopardizing the regime’s security interests.
On March 18, with the green light and consultation of the United States, the Zionist regime resumed its war and crime against Gaza, targeting residential homes, schools, and refugee settlements with its most severe attacks.
However, the US government blamed Hamas for escalating violence in the Middle East and, in a statement supporting the Israeli regime, claimed that Hamas chose war and that the movement was responsible for it. While Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu violated the ceasefire under various pretexts to avoid trial and remain in power, he tried to gain more concessions and disarm Hamas by releasing all prisoners with Steve Witkoff’s plan, which was to extend the first phase without guaranteeing a permanent ceasefire. However, Hamas did not give in to the Israeli regime’s excessive demands and insisted on strict adherence to the previous agreement.
In this regard, the violent attacks by the Zionist regime on Gaza have led to a wave of protests inside the occupied territory. The families of the Zionist prisoners, concerned for the lives of the prisoners, protested the Zionist regime’s obstructionism and its failure to reach an agreement with Hamas to release the prisoners and resume the attacks, and held Netanyahu and Trump responsible for the outcome of this war.
