Report says Hamas satisfied with ceasefire proposal assurances to end Gaza war

Hamas is satisfied with the guarantees to end the Gaza war included in the ceasefire proposal it received, the Saudi news outlet Asharq reported, citing a knowledgeable source.

According to the report, the proposal assures that the mediators that both sides will not resume fighting as long as negotiations are ongoing.
