Hamas: No negotiations underway on second phase of ceasefire agreement.
According to Al-Manar, Hazem Qassem, spokesman for the Hamas movement, announced that the Zionist regime is responsible for not starting negotiations regarding the second phase of the Gaza ceasefire.
He added, “Currently, no negotiations have been held with the Hamas movement regarding the second phase of the ceasefire agreement.”
Qassem stated, “Extending the first phase of the prisoner exchange within the framework that the Zionist occupiers want is unacceptable in our opinion.”
He clarified: “The Zionist regime is trying to return its prisoners and at the same time be able to resume the war against the Gaza Strip.”
Previously, reports had been published regarding Netanyahu’s plan to restart the war against Gaza.
