Meanwhile, Israeli Settlement Minister Orit Strock criticized the deal, calling it a \u201cvictory for Hamas,\u201d while others described it as a \u201cwaste of Israeli military efforts in Gaza.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Media leaks indicate that the Israeli army has already begun withdrawing from several areas in the Gaza Strip, with a full <a href=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/2025\/01\/14\/israeli-army-plans-rapid-withdrawal-from-gaza-amid-progress-in-prisoner-exchange-talks\/\">withdrawal<\/a> expected once the deal is fully implemented.
