Hamas won't allow Israel to dictate ceasefire process, senior Hamas official says

Senior Hamas leader Osama Hamdan says the group still wants to reach a ceasefire agreement but will not allow Israel to dictate the progress of the process.

“Our position is clear, and we are not waiting for a discussion on new papers and titles,” Hamdan told Lebanon’s Al-Manar television.

“There is a document we have agreed on, and we are waiting for the announcement of implementation mechanisms, including the cessation of aggression, its withdrawal, sending aid to the Strip, and launching reconstruction.”
