Speaking during a meeting with Iranian Ambassador to Lebanon, Mojtaba Amani, Abdel Hadi said: “The movement is waging a strong political battle today through which it confirms the resistance’s conditions to stop the war and protects the achievements of the resistance and the sacrifices of the steadfast people.”

Hamas demanded the international community and the United Nations halt the systematic killing of Palestinians by Zionist forces, citing concerns of genocide occurring in full view of the world.

Izzat Al-Rishq, a member of Hamas’ Political Bureau, said in a statement that the Israeli Knesset’s decision to reject the establishment of a Palestinian state is “null and void, and has no value.” He emphasised that “our people will continue their legitimate struggle until they fully reclaim their national rights.”

In a statement on Friday regarding the ceasefire negotiations, Hossam Badran, a member of Hamas’s political bureau, revealed that “We proposed that a non-partisan national competency government manage Gaza and the West Bank after the war”. He stressed that the “administration of Gaza after the war is a Palestinian internal matter without any external ...

The movement added in a statement: “The atrocities revealed after the retreat of the terrorist occupation army from the Tel Al-Hawa neighbourhood southwest of Gaza City, after days of raids, amid violent bombardment and targeting of all aspects of life, are war crimes, genocide and ethnic cleansing.”

At the same time, Nasrallah warned that Hezbollah was ready for and did not fear a war and pointed to the ever-larger salvos of rockets and drones the group has fired at Israel as evidence.

In a statement the movement said: “We stress our refusal of any position that supports the entry of foreign forces into Gaza under any name or justification.”

A Hamas delegation headed by the group’s deputy leader, Khalil Al-Hayya, briefed Hezbollah leader, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, about the latest developments at a meeting in Beirut, the sources said.

According to the report, the group said Haniyeh held “communications with the mediators in Qatar and Egypt regarding the ideas being discussed with them to reach an agreement that would put an end to the brutal aggression faced by our steadfast people in the Gaza Strip”.

The generals believe a ceasefire will be the best way to free the 120 Israelis still being held as prisoners of war in Gaza, explaining that their forces, which they said are “ill-equipped to continue fighting Israel’s longest war in decades”, need time to recover in preparation for the possibility of a war against Hezbollah, the sources said.

The movement added in a press release on Monday that the prisoners have given horrifying testimonies about the tragic conditions endured by those abducted from the Gaza Strip and held in detention centres, including doctors, the elderly, the sick and the wounded. They are subjected to the most appalling practices and crimes, including torture, starvation ...

The statement came after the Israeli army launched a ground offensive in Shuja’iyya on Thursday, the third since the war began on 7 October of last year.

The magazine wrote in a report: “After nine months of gruelling war, it is time to recognize the stark reality: there is no military-only solution to defeat Hamas,” adding that “Hamas is neither defeated nor on the verge of defeat.”

Israeli Channel 7 confirmed that these numbers are receiving treatment in the Defence Ministry’s rehabilitation departments, noting that 35 per cent of them are dealing with mental issues while 21 per cent of them deal with physical injuries.

In a statement issued on Monday, Hamas described the Israeli army’s actions as “criminal and barbaric” and a “clear war crime” that confirm the ongoing “war of extermination” against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip which requires “international condemnation”.

In a statement, Ismail Haniyeh asserted that Israel “continues to massacre Palestinian children and women in the Nuseirat Refugee Camp and Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip.”

'Every word can be fit for this,' Minister of Agriculture Avi Dichter says, describing last year's attack as failure, disaster, terrible accident, and catastrophic consequences

Qatar, which alongside the United States and Egypt has been mediating talks between Hamas and Israel, has also urged Israel to provide a clear position that has the backing of its entire government to reach a deal.

Hamdan told a press conference in Beirut on Monday that the “heroic” resistance in Gaza refutes claims by the Israeli occupation forces that their murderous attacks on civilians have deterred the movement’s armed wing from its resistance efforts.
