"Israeli" Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed that his government will not complete the implementation of the agreement with the concerned parties until receiving the complete list of detainees who will be released.

He noted that the first phase of the agreement includes a temporary ceasefire.

Netanyahu explained that the US, represented by President Joe Biden and upcoming President Donald Trump, granted "Israel" the right to resume fighting if necessary.

Netanyahu stressed that "Israel" will not hesitate to pursue its goal of recovering the detainees, adding that a return to fighting will occur forcefully if necessary.

He described the Israeli achievements during the war as "historic," reaffirming his country's continued control over vital axes in Gaza.

Netanyahu announced that the implementation of the agreement is contingent upon receiving the final list of detainees, and any violation of this will lead to an immediate review.

He mentioned Trump's commitment to release all arms shipments that were suspended during Biden's administration.

He emphasized that Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) will increase their presence in the Philadelphi Corridor and the buffer zones around Gaza, with a rise in troop numbers to ensure complete control.

He claimed to have achieved significant accomplishments that have changed the landscape in the Middle East, stating that "Hamas is now alone," as he expressed.

Netanyahu confirmed that "Israel" will recover all detainees, noting that the current agreement stipulates the return of 33 detainees, most of whom are alive.

He mentioned that any released individuals will be expelled either to the Gaza Strip or abroad.
