One member of the political bureau of the terrorist group Hamas has accused Israel of trying to postpone talks for a ceasefire and prisoner swap. Furthermore, Husam Badran said on Wednesday that the government in charge of the occupation is trying to deflect focus from this indisputable truth that cannot be refuted.

Steer clear of discussions?

Badran also said they are still in constant contact with the mediators, “We are eager to reach an agreement to stop the war, and our communication with them continues.” In an attempt to stop the war and create a compromise on the whole departure of Israeli troops from the Gaza Strip, we reviewed and debated a range of ideas during our talks with the mediators.

He pointed out that the “enemy” understands that it is useless to pressure the organization’s leadership or send threats that linger for too long. Supported by a national consensus, our party is primarily focused in attending to the basic needs of our people. Apart from being the party most eager to stop the war, we are also the party most focused in ending the conflict of our country. Moreover, the source from Hamas said that Vice President Joe Biden’s government, as with past administrations in Washington, were “completely biased” in support of the occupation state. This said with regard to the previous government.
