Says Israel looking for excuse to prolong atrocities
Admin I Sunday, August 11, 2024
GAZA – The Palestinian Resistant Movement, Hamas has called on mediators in the Gaza ceasefire negotiations to submit a plan to implement what they presented to the movement and approved on 7/2/2024 based on President Joe Biden’s vision and security council resolution and put pressure on Israel to oblige.
Hamas said this is the way to proceed for now instead of going through more rounds negotiations and new proposals that will provide cover for Israel’s aggression and give it more time to continue to perpetuate the war of genocide against Palestine.
“Since the beginning of the aggression, the Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas has been keen to make the efforts of the mediating brothers in Egypt and Qatar successful, to reach a ceasefire agreement and end the war of genocide against our people, and affirmed its support for any effort to achieve a cessation of aggression.
“Hamas has engaged in several rounds of negotiations, and has provided all the necessary flexibility and positivity in order to achieve the goals and interests of our people, stop the bloodshed, and stop the genocide against them, in a way that opens the way for a prisoner exchange, relief for our people, the return of the displaced, and reconstruction of what was destroyed by the aggression. In this context, the movement agreed to the mediators’ proposal on May 6, 2024, and welcomed President Biden’s announcement on May 31, 2024, and UN Security Council Resolution 2735 in this regard, which the enemy met with rejection and continued massacres against our people. It continued to emphasize its position that it was not serious about a permanent ceasefire, and its aggressive practices against our people were practical evidence of that.
” Although we and our mediating brothers in Egypt and Qatar are aware of the true intentions and positions of the occupation and its prime minister, the movement responded to the last agreement on 7/2/2024, which the enemy confronted with new conditions that were not proposed throughout the negotiation process, and went on to escalate its aggression against our people and commit more massacres, leading to the assassination of the movement’s leader, the martyr leader/ Ismail Haniyeh – may God have mercy on him – in confirmation of its intentions to continue the aggression and not reach a ceasefire agreement.
“Even after the announcement of the tripartite statement, the enemy committed a heinous crime and committed a massacre against the displaced people in the Al-Tabi’in School in the Al-Daraj neighborhood in Gaza while they were performing the dawn prayer on Saturday 8/10/2024, which led to the martyrdom of more than a hundred civilians and the wounding of more than 250 of them.
“In light of this, and out of concern and responsibility towards our people and their interests, the movement calls on the mediators to submit a plan to implement what they presented to the movement and approved on 7/2/2024, based on Biden’s vision and the Security Council resolution, and to oblige the occupation to do so, instead of going to more rounds of negotiations or new proposals that provide cover for the occupation’s aggression and give it more time to perpetuate the war of genocide against our people”.
