A senior Hamas official said Saturday that the group would not accept a ceasefire that would not completely end the Gaza war, accusing Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu of “personally obstructing” a deal.
Qatari, Egyptian and American mediators met a Hamas delegation in Cairo on Saturday in the latest attempt to halt the devastating nearly seven-month war that has sparked global protests.
They would hear the militant group’s response to a proposal that would halt fighting for 40 days and exchange hostages for Palestinian prisoners, according to details released by Britain.
