The presence of Israeli forces in the narrow strip of land that runs along Gaza’s southern border with Egypt has become a major sticking point in negotiations for a ceasefire in the Strip and an exchange of Palestinian prisoners and Israeli prisoners, Al Jazeera reported.
Netanyahu has repeatedly refused to leave the area, even though Hamas said a previous version of a ceasefire deal, which included the withdrawal of Israeli regime troops from the corridor, was already agreed to by Israeli officials.
