Hamas says no interim truce possible without work toward permanent ceasefire deal

GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE, JUL 18 – Hamas accuses Netanyahu of rejecting an all-at-once prisoner swap amid stalled talks mediated by Qatar and Egypt, with over 250 hostages taken since October 2023, Hamas said.

  • Hamas' armed wing spokesperson stated on July 18 that the group supports an interim truce but may demand a full package deal if no agreement is reached in current negotiations with Israel.
  • Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office claimed that Israel's efforts for a hostage release deal and a 60-day ceasefire have not been reciprocated by Hamas.
  • Hamas has offered to release all hostages and reach a permanent ceasefire, but disputes remain over critical issues like aid delivery and troop withdrawals.
  • The ongoing conflict has resulted in over 58,600 Palestinian deaths and 1,650 casualties among Israelis and foreign nationals, according to official sources.
