ALBAWABA - Under the guise of a cooperative approach with the intention of putting an end to Israeli assaults on the Gaza Strip, Hamas has said that it is making attempts to negotiate a truce with Israel in order to reduce tensions.
Hamas issued a statement in which it accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of impeding discussions and increasing attacks against Palestinians. Hamas believes that these actions impede attempts to achieve peace.
The organization encouraged world entities to maintain their legal and humanitarian obligations in order to put an end to what they referred to as a genocide campaign . They also called for international mediators to intercede against Netanyahu's activities of this kind.
They voiced their disapproval of Israel's latest escalation in Gaza, which also resulted in the displacement of thousands of people and violated international accords and standards.
By way of Qatari and Egyptian channels, Hamas had already suggested a truce on May 6, but Israel had rejected it due to the fact that certain requirements had not been reached.
In response, Vice President Joe Biden of the United States disclosed Israel's proposed three-phase ceasefire plan on May 31. However, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu insisted on continuing operations in Gaza until certain objectives are achieved. He cited inconsistencies with Biden's proposal during an address to the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee on June 3.
