The Islamic Resistance movement Hamas announced that the path to further negotiations has been cleared, prompting the Israeli occupation government to embark on the second phase of talks. The statement highlights that the enemy’s false excuses have been rendered invalid, and now they “have no choice but to commence.”
Hamas charged that the Israeli government’s efforts, led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, to obstruct a ceasefire deal, only exacerbate the suffering of captives and their families. “The only way to secure the release of the captives is through constructive negotiation and a firm commitment to the agreement,” the statement asserted.

In the statement, Hamas renewed its full commitment to the ceasefire agreement, “with all its details and provisions,” and its readiness to enter into negotiations related to the second phase of the agreement.
Last night, Wednesday, the seventh batch of liberated Palestinian prisoners arrived in the city of Ramallah, following a prisoner exchange between the Palestinian resistance and the occupation government in its first phase of the ceasefire agreement.
The Prisoners’ Information Office said that the number of prisoners who will be released in the seventh batch of the first phase of the “Free Flood” deal is 620 prisoners.
‘Israel’ launched a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip on October 7, 2023, after Hamas carried out a historic operation against the usurping entity in retaliation for its intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people.
