Hamas says US truce proposal means ‘continuation of killing’ in Gaza

The White House announced on Thursday that Israel accepted a U.S. Proposal by envoy Steve Witkoff for a 60-day Gaza ceasefire and hostage exchange deal.
This proposal follows an 18-month conflict ignited by Hamas's October 7, 2023 attack that killed about 1,200 people and led to ongoing hostilities and humanitarian crises.
Hamas officials responded cautiously, stating the offer lacks guarantees for a permanent ceasefire and full Israeli withdrawal, while they review the proposal responsibly.
The terms include releasing 10 living hostages and 18 deceased in two stages, in exchange for Palestinian prisoners and increased aid to Gaza, but Hamas calls the deal partial and pro-Israel.
Negotiations continue amid Netanyahu’s political constraints and mounting international pressure, but a lasting Israeli-Palestinian resolution remains distant given the conflict’s complexity.
