Hostage families say Hamas response to hostage deal proposal ‘inseparable part of the negotiating process’

The Hostage and Missing Families Forum says in a statement that Hamas’s response to an Israeli hostage deal proposal is an “inseparable part of the negotiating process.”

The forum says it welcomes comments by US Secretary of State Antony Blinken that it is possible to bridge the gaps between the sides.

“All sides need to immediately continue negotiations in an intense way to bridge the remaining gaps. The Families Forum demands Israel send its negotiating teams to find any possibility to move forward,” it says, adding any delay will harm efforts to bring the captives home.
