Will Israel reach a deal on captives with Hamas? | Inside Story
Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has again declared its military campaign in Gaza will not stop until Hamas is defeated.
But with more than 100 Israeli captives being held in Gaza, he is facing growing public anger.
To make matters worse, Israel’s army says it mistakenly killed three of them during a military offensive.
That’s led to thousands of Israelis protesting.
The head of Israel’s intelligence agency Mossad has now met senior Qataris in Europe in another attempt to secure a prisoner swap.
So can Netanyahu agree a deal?
And how is he dealing with their families’ anger
