Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejects Hamas' conditions for hostage deal, emphasizing rejection of outright surrender and insistence on full Israeli security control of all territory west of Jordan. He pushes back against US President Joe Biden's advocacy for an independent Palestinian state, citing need to prevent an existential danger to Israel. The Middle East conflict continues with ongoing live updates, including the release of footage of a tunnel in Khan Younis, Gaza, where hostages were allegedly held.
