The head of the Hamas political bureau, Ismail Haniyeh, confirmed that they received the proposal that was circulated at the Paris meeting, indicating that they are studying it to provide a response to it.
Haniyeh said in a statement on Tuesday, “Our response to the proposal will be based on the priority being stopping the aggression against Gaza and withdrawing the occupation forces from the Strip.”

He added: "Hamas is open to discussing any serious ideas, provided that they lead to a comprehensive cessation of aggression and providing shelter for our displaced people."

He also explained that they are open to discussing any initiatives that require reconstruction and the completion of a serious prisoner exchange process that guarantees the freedom of our prisoners.

Haniyeh appreciated the role of the brothers in Egypt and Qatar in reaching a sustainable ceasefire agreement in Gaza on the path to ending the aggression.

Haniyeh indicated that they received an invitation to visit Cairo to discuss the framework agreement issued by the Paris meeting and the requirements for its implementation in a way that achieves the interests of our people.
