Jo 24 reported that according to the site, "the return of the Israeli state to the negotiation table indicates its readiness to explore a new hostage deal."

The previous deal went off track two weeks ago after the Israeli occupation refused to renew the humanitarian truce and expanded its aggression on the Gaza Strip.

A previous report by Axios indicated that Qatari mediators had contacted Israeli officials in recent days to find out if there was an interest in restarting indirect talks with Hamas regarding a new deal.

The Israeli occupation army announced on Friday the killing of 3 Israeli hostages in Gaza by the Israeli army's gunfire.

Shortly after the statement by the Israeli occupation army, many families of the detainees still held by Hamas publicly called on the government to present a new plan for a new deal to ensure their release as soon as possible.

Hamas continues to hold more than 130 prisoners, and over 100 of them were released as part of a deal that halted the aggression on Gaza for seven days.

The families of the hostages held by the Palestinian resistance in Gaza threatened to start a hunger strike after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu refused to meet with them.

The Hebrew newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth reported on Saturday, that a hundred families of hostages' families in Gaza accused Netanyahu of working to divide their ranks "so that he does not respond to their demands."
