Hamas Political Bureau Member Bassem Naim stated regarding the new proposal from the U.S. about a temporary ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, "It does not meet any demands, especially the cessation of war and famine."
While Hamas continues to examine the new proposal for a temporary ceasefire in the Gaza Strip from U.S. President Donald Trump's Special Representative Steve Witkoff, Hamas Political Bureau Member Bassem Naim made a statement regarding the proposal.
"IT DOES NOT MEET OUR DEMANDS"
Naim said that the ceasefire proposal approved by Israel does not meet Hamas's demands, but they continue to examine the proposal.
Naim indicated that the proposal means the continuation of deaths and famine, stating that it does not meet any demands, especially the cessation of war and famine. Naim announced that Hamas would respond to the proposal with full national responsibility.
ISRAEL HAS ACCEPTED
On the other hand, it was announced that Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has accepted the U.S. ceasefire proposal. White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt also stated that Israel accepted the temporary ceasefire proposal presented by the U.S., saying, "Israel approved this proposal before it was sent to Hamas. I can also confirm that these discussions are ongoing, and we hope for a ceasefire in Gaza so that we can bring all hostages back home."
WHAT HAPPENED?
Hamas had previously stated that Witkoff's new proposal for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip was communicated to them by mediators.
Reports in the U.S. media claimed that Hamas was not satisfied with Witkoff's ceasefire proposal, noting that the proposal did not contain a clear U.S. guarantee that the temporary ceasefire would lead to a permanent ceasefire.
It was reported that Witkoff's proposal anticipated that during the 60-day temporary ceasefire, the parties would negotiate the terms of a permanent ceasefire, and it was noted that if these discussions exceeded 60 days, the temporary ceasefire would not be extended accordingly. Hamas has not yet officially responded to the proposal.
