Adam Boehler, the U.S. special envoy for hostage response, stated that the ongoing Israeli attacks in Gaza would cease immediately if Hamas releases all hostages. Despite mounting casualties exceeding 51,000, Boehler insisted that the resolution lies solely with Hamas. While he emphasized that Trump's administration will not move forward with discussions until the hostages are free, there remains uncertainty regarding the future relationship between Israel and Gaza. Hamas demands that a new agreement for ending the conflict must be established before it considers releasing captives.
Adam Boehler emphasized that hostages' release is the prerequisite for any progress in ceasefire negotiations, stating, "The day that those hostages are released, the fighting will end."
Boehler stated, "Hamas can end this." He indicated that the U.S. stands firm on requiring complete release of hostages before moving forward.
He highlighted the dire situation, noting, "the death toll from Israel's offensive in Gaza reached 51,025," underscoring the urgency of the situation.
