A senior leader of the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas declares that the ongoing war will not end as Israel hopes. Osama Hamdan, representative of Hamas in Lebanon, believes that the conclusion of this conflict will favor the resistance. He emphasizes the need for the United States to stop supporting Israel for the aggression to cease.
In an interview with Hezbollah’s Al-Manar news channel, Hamdan expresses Hamas’ readiness for a ceasefire agreement in Gaza. Despite accepting an Egyptian-Qatari proposal, which includes a ceasefire, withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza, reconstruction, and prisoner exchange, Israel rejects the deal. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fears leaving Hamas intact.
Hamdan remains resolute in Hamas’ demands, including ceasefire, withdrawal, relief, reconstruction, and complete prisoner exchange. He stresses that the real solution lies in ending the occupation. Hamas believes in victory and the region’s strategic impact, highlighting the Iranian response’s significance in the struggle.
Recent assassinations of Hamas and Hezbollah leaders by Israel show the escalating tensions in the region. Hamdan conveys a message of defending rights and future against Israeli aggression, with a commitment to achieve victory for the resistance.
