Hamas leader signals interest Gaza ceasefire

Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh is signaling a readiness to halt the latest round of fighting with Israel.

Ismail Haniyeh says in a statement that the ruling terror group will stop firing rockets at Israeli communities if the IDF stops its airstrikes in the Strip.

He says “the Palestinian resistance is defending its people and itself before the Israeli aggression,” adding that “if the occupation stops its aggression, it’s possible to return to the ceasefire understandings.”
