Hazem Qassem, the spokesman for the Hamas movement in Gaza, has reiterated the group’s commitment to the truce agreement.
According to a statement released on Hamas’s Telegram page, he said that Hamas is “keen to ensure the success of this agreement and its implementation on the ground”.
The spokesman stressed that Hamas has received clear guarantees from Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey, as well as direct confirmations from the United States, that the war has effectively ended and that implementing the terms of the agreement represents a complete end to it.
Qassem praised US President Trump’s statements, considering them in favour of the ceasefire agreement and noted that Washington’s position rejecting the annexation of the occupied West Bank to Israel is “positive”.
He called for pressure on Israel to fulfill its obligations, most notably halting the aggression, lifting the siege on the Gaza Strip, and allowing the urgent and adequate entry of humanitarian aid.
Qassem also warned that Israel might use the humanitarian card to blackmail political positions, calling for “serious action to prevent a recurrence of the starvation policies practised by the occupation during the long years of the blockade”.
