Netanyahu Rejected Early Deal to Release Captives: Sources
The Israeli prime minister has taken a hard line in negotiations with Hamas regarding the release of Israeli captives in exchange for a cease fire
Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected an early deal for a five-day ceasefire with Hamas-led Palestinian resistance in Gaza in return for the release of some Israeli hostages, the Guardian reported on 9 November.
According to sources familiar with the negotiations, the Israeli prime minister rejected the deal outright in early negotiations after Hamas carried out an unprecedented surprise attack into Israeli territory on 7 October. An estimated 1,400 Israelis were killed, including many killed by the Israeli military itself.
Negotiations resumed after the launch of the Israeli ground offensive on Gaza on 27 October, but the Guardian reports that according to the same sources, “Netanyahu has continued to take a tough line on proposals involving ceasefires of different durations in exchange for a varying number of hostages.”
The Israeli prime minister’s office did not respond to the Guardian for comment.

The current drawdown traces back to a 172 million-barrel release President Trump authorized in March, part of a coordinated 400 million-barrel release by 32 IEA member countries. Discharge began about a week later and was expected to take roughly 120 days, with the administration pledging to refill about 200 million barrels within a year at no cost to taxpayers.
Two different floors govern how far the reserve can fall. Federal law sets an operational minimum of 252.4 million barrels, while the generally accepted operational minimum is 250 to 300 million barrels on hand to pump and process oil efficiently, a level it is now testing.
