Netanyahu Signals Shift Toward U.S. Hardline on Hostage Talks

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appears to embrace the more hawkish stance advocated by U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff. In a statement released in English, Netanyahu declared that Israel is "considering alternative avenues" to secure the release of hostages, signaling a consolidation with Witkoff’s uncompromising approach after earlier remarks suggesting negotiations could continue.
