Israeli Official: Reports of a Deal to Be Unveiled on Saturday Are Premature
i24 News – An Israeli official speaking to i24NEWS on the condition of anonymity on Saturday sought to rebuff reports that a ceasefire and hostage deal could be announced in the coming hours.
Even allowing that an agreement on the framework of the deal is in place, there are still many details to thrash out, including the names of the prisoners to be released, which has yet been discussed at this stage, the official told i24NEWS.
Certainly no agreement is expected on Saturday, seeing as the head of the Mossad, Dedi Barnea, has not traveled to Cairo today.
As for US assurances regarding the end of the war, the source said these are promises made by the Americans to Hamas, and it is only theirs. Israel will maintain a military presence in Gaza, the official underscored, “because the Israeli public will not accept a different reality.”

Pro-Palestinian Group Demands California University Cut Ties With Jewish Community Organizations
i24 News – Extremist campus group Students for Justice for Palestine issued a demand for UC Santa Cruz to boycott both Israeli and Jewish community organizations, a move described by Jewish groups and student and blatantly antisemitic.
SJP demanded that the university “Cut ties UC wide with all zionist [sic] organizations — including study abroad programs, fellowships, seminars, research collaborations and universities. Cut ties with the Hellen Diller foundation, Koret foundation, Israel Institute and Hillel International.”
US campuses have been roiled for weeks by anti-Israel and pro-Hamas encampment and riots, including scenes of violence at UCLA and other top universities, where anti-Israeli rhetoric has consistently glided over into antisemitism.
However, this latest demand is noteworthy in its apparent lack of interest in the usual fig leaves of anti-Israeli activism.
“Three of the four organizations cited in the academic boycott demand by encampment activists at UCSC are Jewish charities and communal groups,” the Bay Area Jewish Community Relations Council (JCRC) said in response.
“They are pillars of the Jewish community. This isn’t just about opposing Israel’s Gaza actions but seems aimed at Jewish institutions, revealing underlying antisemitism.”
