Netanyahu throws wrench into ceasefire deal claims without proof Hamas is backtracking

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has accused Hamas without proof of reneging on key details of the ceasefire agreement, claiming the group is hindering its approval by the Israeli government.

In a statement, Netanyahu alleged that Hamas was attempting to "extort last minute concessions" by backtracking on parts of the deal. However, there is no evidence to support Netanyahu's claims, especially given his history of derailing ceasefire agreements in the past.

Despite Israel's accusations, Hamas has reiterated its commitment to the ceasefire deal announced by the mediators yesterday, urging Israel to uphold its part of the agreement.

Israel's refusal to convene the cabinet to ratify the deal Hamas has accepted leaves the Palestinian people to bear the consequences. On Thursday alone Israel has killed at least 50 Palestinians.
