Hamas, now under the leadership of Yahya Sinwar, said it won’t send a delegation to renewed hostage release and ceasefire talks on Thursday.
The terror group said it had asked mediators to present a plan based on previous negotiations.
“The movement calls on the mediators to present a plan to implement what was agreed upon by the movement on July 2, 2024, based on Biden’s vision and the UN Security Council resolution,” Hamas says in a statement.
“The mediators should enforce this on the occupation (Israel) instead of pursuing further rounds of negotiations or new proposals that would provide cover for the occupation’s aggression and grant it more time to continue its genocide against our people,” the statement adds.
