US, UK urge Hamas to accept Israeli truce proposal in war on Gaza
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken says he is hopeful Hamas will accept an “extraordinarily generous” offer, as UK Foreign Minister David Cameron says it will include a 40-day ceasefire. But the sticking points remain: Israelis want a truce while Hamas demands a cessation of all hostilities.
Al Jazeera's Hashem Ahelbarra reports on renewed diplomatic momentum.
Senior Hamas spokesperson Osama Hamdan has reiterated the group’s stance on a ceasefire, including the withdrawal of troops in Gaza and the return of Palestinians to their homes.
“It’s clear from the Israeli paper that they are still insisting on two major issues. They don’t want a complete ceasefire and they are not talking, in a serious way, about the withdrawal from Gaza. In fact, they are still talking about their presence … which means that they will keep continuing [occupying] Gaza,” Hamdan told Al Jazeera.
“We have serious questions for the mediators. If there [are] positive answers, I think we can move forward.
Earlier, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken claimed that the Israeli proposal was an “extraordinarily generous” offer.
“Stopping the attacks against Palestinians is not generous. The attack itself is a crime, so when you stop a crime, you can’t claim that it’s a generous action from the Israeli side,” added Hamdan.
