Ahlulbayt News Agency: Senior Hamas spokesperson Osama Hamdan has reiterated the group’s stance on a ceasefire, including the withdrawal of Israeli troops in Gaza and the return of Palestinians to their homes.
“It’s clear from the Israeli paper that they are still insisting on two major issues. They don’t want a complete ceasefire and they are not talking, in a serious way, about the withdrawal from Gaza. They are still talking about their presence … which means that they will keep continuing [occupying] Gaza,” Hamdan told Al Jazeera.
“We have serious questions for the mediators. If there [are] positive answers, I think we can move forward.
Earlier, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken claimed that the Israeli proposal was an “extraordinarily generous” offer.
