Hamas Responds to Biden's Statements on Ceasefire in Gaza
The Islamic Resistance Movement, known as Hamas, has expressed strong disapproval over recent comments made by US President Joe Biden regarding the ceasefire agreement in Gaza. In an official statement, Hamas labeled Biden's remarks as misleading and reflective of American bias towards the Israeli occupation. The movement emphasized its commitment to halting aggression against Gaza, countering Biden's assertion that it was retreating from the ceasefire.
Hamas accused the US administration of providing a 'green light' to the Israeli government, which it claims emboldens further attacks on civilians. The group highlighted that the recent proposals presented to them are a deviation from agreements established on July 2, which were initially supported by Biden and aligned with a Security Council resolution. Hamas stated that negotiations have been conducted in good faith, while accusing Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu of obstructing progress.
The statement further urged mediators from Qatar and Egypt to fulfill their roles in ensuring compliance with international agreements and called for the US to cease its support for what it termed as 'war criminals' in Israel.
- Hamas's statement comes amid ongoing tensions in the region, as civilian casualties in Gaza continue to rise. The group has consistently sought to highlight the humanitarian crisis resulting from the conflict, urging international intervention to protect civilians. The dynamics of the Israel-Palestine conflict remain complex, with various factions involved and multiple international actors trying to mediate a resolution. Hamas's call for a halt to aggression is part of a broader plea for peace and stability in the region.
