Hamas: There’s ‘national consensus’ for long-term Gaza ceasefire with Israel

Hamas says in a statement that there exists a “national consensus” among the Palestinian people in favor of a long-term Gaza ceasefire with Israel.

The terror group ruling the coastal enclave referred specifically to a deal that would lift the blockade of Gaza, but that would ostensibly require some sort of agreement with Israel for that to happen.

The statement also criticized Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, who has slammed as “treasonous” intensifying talks between Hamas and Israel that sideline his government.
