Hamas calls Israeli threats to resume war by midnight ’empty’
Osama Hamdan, Beirut-based member of Hamas’s political bureau, says Israel’s “empty threats will not change our position”.
“We reiterate our commitment to implement and ensure the success of the truce agreement that was reached through Qatari and Egyptian mediation,” Hamdan said in a news conference.
“The agreement on a humanitarian truce and the exchange of captives and prisoners would not have been achieved if it were not for the steadfastness of our people,” he said.
“The occupation will not succeed in liberating its prisoners by force.”
He also said:
- Our people’s return to their homes in the north have voided all plans to displace Palestinians in Gaza.
- We call for the states to boost their support and aid, and to send more field hospitals to Gaza.
- We call for pressure to be exercised on Israel to release all medical staff, especially Dr Muhammad Abu Salmiyah, director of al-Shifa Hospital.
