The group has shelp it wants a truce structure based on US Plivent Joe Biden’s May 31 endfire proposal.
Hamas has asked mediators to current a structure based upon previous truce talks instead of trying to discover a recent Gaza endfire deal, days ahead of talks gived by the United States, Egypt and Qatar.
In a statement on its official Telegram channel, the group shelp that it wants a structure “based on [US President Joe] Biden’s May 31 endfire proposal, the structurelabor lhelp out by mediators Qatar and Egypt on May 6, and UN Security Council Resolution 2735“.
The May 6 proposal, which Hamas previously concurd to and Israel declinecessitate, also uncovers the free of Israeli captives in Gaza as well as an unspecified number of Palestinians held in Israeli jails.
Sunday’s Hamas statement inserted that “the mediators should enforce this [May 6 proposal] on the occupation [Israel] instead of pursuing further rounds of negotiations or recent proposals that would provide cover for the occupation’s aggression and grant it more time to persist its extermination agetst our people”.
Reporting from Amman, Jordan, Al Jazeera’s Hamdah Salhut shelp that Israeli media outlets are describeing the Hamas statement as a declineion of the endfire talks altogether.
“But their [Hamas] statement did not say that. They’re mecount on calling on mediators to put the exceptional proposal that they had concurd to, on the table,” she shelp.
August 15 talks
Last week, directers of the US, Egypt and Qatar called on Israel and Hamas to encounter for negotiations on August 15 in either Cairo or Doha to finalise a Gaza endfire and captive free deal.
Hamas spokesman Jihad Taha had shelp on Saturday that the group’s directership is “studying” the invitation for these endfire talks.
Taha shelp that “the one obstructing the success of the last proposal is the Israeli occupation” and stressed that “closing the remaining gaps in the endfire concurment comes thraw exerting genuine prescertain on the Israeli side, which was, and still is, practising a policy of placing obstacles in the way of the success of any efforts and endeavours directing to ending the aggression”.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has previously shelp that he would not concur to any deal that stiputardyd an end to Israel’s war on Gaza without the brimming flunkure of Hamas. But Israel has shelp it would send negotiators to achieve part in the endfire encountering on August 15.
If the talks achieve place, it would also label the first time that Hamas will head into talks with Gaza directer Yahya Sinwar at the helm, follotriumphg Israel’s killing of Ismail Haniyeh.
Meanwhile, Israel’s strikes on Gaza persist to rage.
An Israeli air strike on the al-Tabin School compound in Gaza City housing displaced Palestinian families ended approximately 100 people on Saturday.
“Every time there is some sort of relocatement in these [ceasefire] negotiations, there is a huge-scale strike in Gaza and it derails the talks all altogether,” Al Jazeera’s Salhut pointed out.
Hamas shelp that Israel carrying out the “al-Tabin school massacre” is further “proof that it only wants to escatardy its aggression”.
But the group inserted that despite this strike, it will persist to adhere to the proposal lhelp out by the mediators that it had already concurd to previously.
