GAZA — A source within the Hamas movement revealed that
negotiations for a ceasefire and a prisoner exchange deal are progressing, as
per Al-Ghad. The source affirmed Hamas's determination to end Israel’s
aggression and prevent the resumption of hostilities under any circumstance. It
was emphasized that there would be no temporary truce.

"There is relative progress, but it is difficult to say
that things are concluded, as we have received the new document, which is
currently in the stage of internal discussion.”
Sources familiar with the progress of the negotiations
stated, “The discussions revolve around certain formulations and details
concerning the stages of the proposed agreement presented to Hamas. These
matters were deliberated during the Paris meeting, attended by CIA Director
William Burns,
Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, Director of Mossad David Barnea, and Director of the Egyptian General
Intelligence Directorate Abbas Kamel.”
The proposal presented at the Paris meeting includes three
stages for the release of captives. The first stage involves releasing three
women of reserve age, seniors over sixty, and those who are critically injured.
The second stage includes the release of military personnel and soldiers. The
third stage involves handing over the bodies of captives. According to the
sources, Hamas has identified three main principles: ceasefire without a truce,
unrestricted reconstruction, and the complete withdrawal of
Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) from Gaza.
Furthermore,
Hamas expressed a preference for modifying the
proposed stages of the agreement. It insisted that the release of captured
military personnel and soldiers from within military units should only occur in
the final stage. This stage includes an agreement to activate a comprehensive
ceasefire, followed by the withdrawal of
IOF from Gaza, and then initiating
negotiations on a long-term truce.
Senior Political Leader of Hamas,
Ismail Haniyeh stated that
the movement's leadership had received an invitation to visit Cairo. The
purpose of the visit is to discuss the framework agreement issued from the
Paris meeting and its implementation requirements in line with a comprehensive
vision aimed at achieving the
people of Gaza’s national interests in the
foreseeable future.
He clarified, “Hamas is open to discussing any serious and
practical initiatives or ideas as long as they lead to a comprehensive
cessation of aggression and secure the process of sheltering for our people who
were forced to displace due to the occupation's measures and the destruction of
their homes. Additionally, the discussions should focus on reconstruction,
lifting the siege, and achieving a serious prisoner exchange.”
