In the previous month, a Hamas spokesperson emphasized that disarming and the ongoing Israeli occupation are not negotiable, and the group aims for a lasting ceasefire.
A Hamas source involved in the Doha negotiations indicated the group is ready “to free all Israeli hostages at once, contingent upon securing a full and permanent ceasefire”, while Israel “prefers releasing its prisoners all at once or in stages for a temporary truce”.
On the ground, Gaza civil defence spokesperson Mahmud Bassal told AFP 22 Palestinians were killed and at least 100 others wounded in a pre-dawn attack on tents sheltering displaced Palestinians in al-Mawasi in the southern Gaza Strip.
