Hamas spokesperson Hossam Badran accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of not genuinely seeking an agreement and misleading his people regarding negotiations for the release of Israeli hostages held by Hamas. Badran emphasized Hamas’ focus on ending aggression, providing aid, facilitating the return of displaced individuals, and establishing a clear reconstruction plan. He criticized the US for its perceived support of Israel and hindrance to a potential agreement. Israel reportedly accepted a US-brokered proposal to release 700-800 Palestinian prisoners in exchange for 40 Israeli hostages, with discussions ongoing.
