Minister of the Israeli government's war council, Eisenkot, said that the return of the detainees is better than the destruction of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), and without it there is no victory, but rather permanent damage to national power.

Last month, a letter sent by Eisenkot to the same council was revealed, in which he warned of the increasing difficulty in achieving the goals of the war in Gaza.

It is noteworthy that Eisenkot served as Chief of Staff of the Israeli Army from 2015 to 2019, and his son and nephew were killed in December 2023 in battles in the Gaza Strip.
