Hamas said on Monday that it is showing flexibility in talks with mediators and is awaiting the outcome of efforts from Egypt, Qatar, and the United States in negotiations with Israel.
"We have dealt flexibly with the efforts of the mediators and (US President Donald) Trump's envoy, and we await the results of the anticipated negotiations, holding the occupation accountable for the agreement and moving to the second phase”, a Hamas statement read.
It added, according to Reuters, that the “negotiations conducted with the Egyptian and Qatari mediators and Trump's envoy are focused on ending the war, withdrawal, and reconstruction.
Hamas concluded saying that Israel’s statements about plans to resume fighting in Gaza and the decision to cut electricity to the Gaza Strip are all failed choices that pose a threat to the prisoners.
