Hamas official says terror group likely to respond to hostage deal proposal within 48 hours

A senior Hamas official tells AFP that the terror group will “most likely” respond to an Israeli ceasefire-hostage release proposal it received through mediators within 48 hours.

“Hamas will most likely send its response to the mediators within the next 48 hours, as the movement is still conducting in-depth consultations… within its leadership framework, as well as with resistance factions, in order to formulate a unified position,” the official tells AFP.
