Hamas accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of stalling for a ceasefire deal in Gaza by adding new terms and demands to the US-backed ceasefire proposal, after recent talks were held through mediators.
The group said it received the latest response from Israel after talks in Rome involving Israel, the United States, Egypt, and Qatar.
"It is clear from what the mediators have said that Netanyahu has returned to his delayed, evaded strategy and avoided reaching an agreement by setting new conditions and demands," Hamas said.
The Islamic faction accused Netanyahu of withdrawing from a proposal previously submitted by a mediator, which they said was based on "Israeli paper".
