In a recent address, Ismail Haniyeh, head of Hamas's political bureau, (pictured) highlighted the group's conditions for truce negotiations in the ongoing conflict with Israel in Gaza.
Haniyeh emphasized the need for a ceasefire, a demand yet to be accepted by Israel. Despite reaching out to interlocutors just before the speech, Haniyeh expressed disappointment, noting the lack of confirmation from the occupation forces about halting the conflict. He further stated that Israel has not committed to allowing displaced individuals to return to their original areas.
