Hamas has issued a statement saying it's offering flexibility and
positivity in talks to reach a deal to end Israel's
nine month war on Gaza.
Hamas accuses Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of placing more
obstacles on the negotiations and escalating crimes against the Palestinian
people.
He called on mediators to intervene and put pressure on
the Israeli leader.
The group also calls on the international community and the
UN to fulfill their humanitarian and legal responsibilities.
To put pressure to stop the crime of genocide,
Hamas warned of disastrous repercussions because of what is happening
in Gaza.
It says the occupation's threat to large neighborhoods in Gaza
and the request to evacuate them would return the negotiating
process to .0.
Hamda Salute has more now from Amman.
Hamas has released two different statements on Monday,
the 1st saying that Israel under Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
is not willing to show any flexibility.
In these negotiations and that mediators should intervene.
And all this comes after Netanyahu's office released a statement
on Sunday explaining 4 non negotiable items that Israel is
going into these negotiations with.
Now this list in this statement was slammed by several
Israeli officials speaking anonymously saying that this is something that
is going to deter the negotiations.
Meanwhile, Hamas's second statement has said that continued Israeli military
action in northern Gaza is going to plummet these talks.
But when we heard from the White House,
the US National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby,
earlier on Monday, he did say that the statements released
by both sides do not actually reflect how the talks
are going,
saying that there are still a lot of gaps to
bridge,
but that mediators are trying to do just that.
And all this comes as there's been a lot of
internal discourse within Netanyahu's coalition,
lawmakers from the far right like Itamar,
Bengveer and Bethel and Smelt Rich,
known ultra nationalists who say that Israel should not be
entering a deal.
To release their remaining captives saying that it would deter
them from an absolute victory and that it would be
a win for Hamas.
And then you have other members of the coalition exchanging
verbal jabs with the far right saying that if there
is going to be a demise and fall of the
government, it's going to be because of Ben Veer and
