Hamas official Osama Hamdan denied that the resistance movement had put forward new ideas for the US-backed proposal for a ceasefire and captive deal in Gaza.
Hamdan, speaking to the pan-Arab Al-Araby TV, also said US Secretary of State Antony Blinken was “part of the problem, not the solution” in the Gaza conflict.
Earlier, Blinken said that Hamas had suggested numerous changes, some unworkable, to the Gaza ceasefire proposal, though he also said mediators remained determined to close the gaps.
The UN Security Council approved a US-backed resolution on Monday aimed at ending Israel’s genocidal war in the Gaza Strip.
Hamas welcomed the adoption of the resolution but the resistance movement called for assurances that Israel would abide by it.
“Efforts are continuing to study and clarify some matters to ensure implementation by the Israeli side,” Hamas spokesperson Jihad Taha said.
He accused Israel of “stalling and procrastinating and creating obstacles in order to continue the aggression (on Gaza).”
