Haniyeh says terror group will respond ‘seriously and positively’ to hostage deal based on total, permanent ceasefire

Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh says the terror group will deal ‘seriously and positively’ with any ceasefire agreement that is based on the total halt of war, complete Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip, and the release of Palestinian security prisoners in exchange for the hostages it is holding.

Hamas has yet to formally respond to the Israeli hostage release and ceasefire deal proposal, which was presented by US President Joe Biden late last week.
