Truce efforts advancing, end of hostilities essential, Hamas says
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleHamas spokesperson Sami Abu Zuhri says the Islamist group concedes that there are contacts to reach a truce between Israel and the Palestinian factions and that “the efforts are advancing more than in the past, but we haven’t received a concrete response from Israel.”
“We’re prepared to discuss at a later stage the various controversial issues: the sea port, the prisoners and the airport,” he says. “What’s important at this stage is ending the Israeli aggression, opening the crossings and rebuilding the Strip.”
