Israel and Hamas have reached a truce mediated by Qatar to ensure calm in the Gaza Strip and its surroundings for six months, and in return, Qatar will transfer $100 million to Hamas in a deal coordinated with Doha by Mossad head Yossi Cohen alongside the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories. Local Israeli leaders criticized this truce and the circumstances surrounding it.  “I am sorry that instead of eliminating terrorism, the Israeli government supports the transfer of money to a terrorist organization for half a year. We don’t buy it, and of course, we do not welcome it,” said Sderot Mayor Alon Davidi. “The Israeli government must do as it knows how to do, and has done in the past — eliminates the terrorists in Gaza and the heads of terrorist organizations. The peace agreements with the Emirates and Bahrain must be used for regional cooperation that will benefit us and Gaza,” Davidi added. To check the news, click here
