Rejected Ceasefire-for-Hostages Deal Exposes Qatar's Double Standards in Israel-Hamas War

TL;DR Summary
Hamas offered Israel a deal to exchange 50 hostages for a 5-day ceasefire in Gaza, but Israel rejected the offer, demanding a shorter timeframe and a detailed list of hostages. The negotiations took place prior to the ground invasion of Gaza on October 27, briefly delaying the incursion. Israel has maintained a tough stance on ceasefire-for-hostage proposals, and its retaliatory strikes have killed over 10,000 people in Gaza. Hamas is seeking the release of Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails through negotiation talks.
