The move sent shockwaves through Tel Aviv, especially since the deal was executed without Netanyahu\u2019s knowledge or involvement, widely interpreted as a clear political humiliation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1102\" data-end=\"1312\">Netanyahu\u2019s office responded with firmness: no ceasefire, no prisoner exchange, no partnership in negotiations \u2014 as if to reclaim political authority through force after losing control at the negotiating table.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1314\" data-end=\"1697\">\u201cThe military pressure forced Hamas to compromise,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/2025\/05\/12\/netanyahu-rejects-ceasefire-despite-hamas-offer-to-release-israeli-american-hostage\/\">Netanyahu<\/a> claimed. But reports and leaks suggest the opposite: negotiations took place behind his back, coordinated directly between the U.S. and Qatar, away from Israeli oversight. Many in Israel now believe the U.S. is prioritizing the hostage file as a humanitarian issue \u2014 one that overrides Netanyahu\u2019s political calculations.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_17318\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17318\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-17318 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/66666-1.jpg\" alt=\"Hamas Releases Israeli-American Soldier to ICRC in Gaza, Opening Path for Ceasefire Talks\" width=\"1000\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/66666-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/66666-1-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/66666-1-768x461.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-17318\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Eidan Alexander<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1699\" data-end=\"1998\">Israel\u2019s reaction was swift and severe, escalating military operations in Gaza just as discussions of a \u201csafe corridor\u201d for Alexander\u2019s release emerged. The scene painted a picture of disarray, reflecting an Israeli leadership out of sync with both battlefield realities and diplomatic developments.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2000\" data-end=\"2276\">So who really controls the threads of this conflict?
