Hamas has put forward a specific condition for the cessation of ongoing conflicts. This condition involves the establishment of a committee. Hamas's request is seen as a new step towards resolving the situation in the region. However, it is still unclear whether this demand will be accepted.

As Israel's attacks on Gaza continue for over a year; significant developments are taking place regarding the parties reaching a ceasefire agreement.

Recently, Hamas announced under what conditions it would sign the ceasefire. Khalil al-Hayya, a member of Hamas's political bureau, stated in an interview with Al-Aqsa television that "A proposal was put on the table to establish a committee for the administration of Gaza. This is a suggestion made by our Egyptian brothers. We responded to this with a responsible and positive approach."

Al-Hayya also mentioned, "We accept this proposal on the condition that the committee manages Gaza entirely locally and oversees everything related to daily life there."

WILL A PRISONER EXCHANGE TAKE PLACE?

Hayya, regarding the indirect ceasefire and prisoner exchange negotiations between Hamas and Israel, stated, "There will be no prisoner exchange as long as the Israeli genocide continues. Indeed, this is an interconnected equation. We clearly state that we want this aggression to stop. For any prisoner exchange to occur, these attacks must cease first."

"NETANYAHU IS BLOCKING PROGRESS IN CEASEFIRE NEGOTIATIONS"

Hayya conveyed that they are ready for a ceasefire agreement but emphasized that Israel must also genuinely be willing in this regard, stating, "Our contacts with mediator countries to activate the ceasefire negotiations are ongoing. However, Netanyahu is blocking progress in the ceasefire negotiations for political reasons."
