DOHA – Talks aimed at bringing about permanent ceasefire to the Gaza Strip have collapsed in Doha.

A leadership source in the Palestinian resistance has been reported to have said that the Doha meetings failed, and that the negotiations are on the brink of collapse.

According to the source, the Doha meetings failed to deter “israel” from insisting on staying in the “Philadelphia” corridor.

Besides, the Doha meeting we were told also failed to lift the veto on 65 Palestinian prisoners sentenced to life imprisonment.

“The negotiations are heading toward collapse due to “israel’s” refusal to respond to the mediators’ proposals to resolve the outstanding issues”, the source said.

Hamas was reported to have said that the negotiations in their current form will not lead to an agreement.

We have been told that mediators are deeply frustrated by “israel’s” intransigent positions and see it as the only obstacle in the negotiations.

The mediators, we gathered say Washington is not applying enough pressure on “israel,” despite knowing that its positions are unjustified.
