Relatives and supporters of Israeli hostages held in Gaza since the Oct. 7 attacks by Hamas in southern Israel, rally near the residence of the Israeli prime minister in Jerusalem on Jan. 21, 2024, to call for their release. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Jan. 2, he had rejected conditions demanded by Hamas militants for the release of hostages, hours after the group released a report justifying its Oct. 7 attack on Israel.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appeared to push back on Monday against media speculation that a new Gaza truce was in the works, telling relatives of hostages held by Hamas that the Palestinian militant group has not made any solid offer.
"There is no real proposal by Hamas. It's not true. I am saying this as clearly as I can because there are so many incorrect statements which are certainly agonizing for you," Netanyahu's office quoted him as telling the group.
