Dikhter was quoted saying that Hamas has not yet revealed the ID of its negotiators and remains ambiguous toward the terms of a possible prisoners swap deal. The Israeli official also believes that there is no coordination between Hamas's Gaza leadership and that of Damascus, claiming that this matter that would hamper the negotiations over Shalit. Hamas and two other resistance groups in Gaza captured Gila'd Shalit in a cross-border attack in southern Gaza in June 2006. Israel responded with lethal force against Gaza, yet Shalit remained in captivity. Hamas demands the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners from Israeli jails, in exchange of Shalit. Recent media reports have also stated that Hamas has increased the list of would-be prisoners to 1000, including those with long-term sentences. |
