BEIRUT (Palestine Foundation Information Center) Hamas senior official Osama Hamdan, on Thursday evening, said that there will be no prisoner exchange deal with the Israeli occupation unless the aggression on Gaza is halted and a complete withdrawal takes place.
Hamdan clarified that any serious efforts to release the Israeli captives held by the Resistance should begin with a ceasefire.
He stated that the visit of the Hamas delegation to Moscow was part of efforts to halt the Israeli aggression against Gaza. He added, “We have requested assistance from Russia, China, and Algeria to help end the assault on Gaza.”
While noting that “mediators informed the delegation that there are indications negotiations could move forward,” he affirmed that “the Hamas delegation stands firmly by the Movement’s principles.”
Hamdan mentioned that the delegation went to Cairo to hear the proposed ideas but emphasized that “the Movement’s stance on its demands remains unchanged.”
The Hamas leader pointed out that the ongoing massacres in Lebanon and Palestine confirm the true nature of the Israeli entity, which some are trying to hide.
