MIT PRESIDENT KALIN MET WITH HAMAS DELEGATION
National Intelligence Organization President İbrahim Kalın met in Istanbul with Halil Hayye, the head of the Hamas Political Bureau Negotiation Delegation, and the accompanying Hamas delegation. In a statement regarding the meeting, it was noted that the HAMAS delegation expressed their gratitude for Turkey's role and efforts as a mediator and guarantor, especially President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, in ensuring the ceasefire and monitoring this process within the scope of the "Gaza Ceasefire Agreement".
"WE ARE COMMITTED TO THE CEASEFIRE AGREEMENT"
The Hamas delegation also reiterated their commitment to the ceasefire agreement despite the violations made by the Israeli side during the ceasefire process.
The statement included the following expressions: "In the meeting, the two delegations discussed the necessary steps to ensure the healthy functioning of the ceasefire process and how to overcome the existing problems. Additionally, consultations were held on the paths to be followed regarding the implementation of the subsequent phases of the ceasefire plan."
Information was provided about Turkey's humanitarian aid to Gaza and efforts to end the humanitarian drama, and ongoing work with international organizations to facilitate more aid initiatives was discussed.
CEASEFIRE AND PRISONER EXCHANGE AGREEMENT IN GAZA
The ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement reached between Israel and Hamas came into effect on October 10. Following the Israeli army's withdrawal from the "Yellow Line" as specified in the agreement, it was announced that the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip came into effect at 12:00 on the same day. However, despite the ceasefire reached in the Gaza Strip, the Israeli army continued its attacks on Palestinians intermittently with various claims.
After the delivery of right-wing Israeli prisoners, the bodies of 28 Israeli prisoners remained in the Gaza Strip. Hamas had previously delivered 17 bodies to Israel as part of the ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement, and Israel claimed that one of the bodies did not belong to any prisoner remaining in Gaza, while another was parts of a body belonging to a previously captured prisoner. It was reported that the bodies of 13 Israeli prisoners were found in the Gaza Strip.
So far, Israel has delivered the remains of 195 Palestinians to the authorities in Gaza through the Red Cross without providing identification information. According to data from the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza, only 72 of the remains delivered by Israel could be identified.
The Director of the Media Office of the Gaza government, Ismail es-Sevabite, stated that signs of torture and close-range gunfire were found on the remains provided by Israel, and these findings are evidence that Israel has been carrying out "field executions" against Palestinian prisoners.
The guarantor countries in the ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement reached between Hamas and Israel on October 10 shared that they acknowledged the difficulty of finding the remains of all Israeli dead prisoners left by Israel in the face of the destruction in Gaza. According to figures released by the United Nations, Israel's ongoing attacks in Gaza for two years have left behind approximately 55 million tons of debris.
In addition, due to the strict embargo imposed by Israel on Gaza, the lack of sufficient heavy machinery, roads, and other infrastructure inside also complicates access to the remains of Israeli prisoners and the remains of around 10,000 Palestinians believed to be under the rubble.
