Osama Hamdan, a leader in the Hamas movement, confirmed that the movement, since the beginning of the aggression, has been open to discussing any initiatives or ideas that lead to stopping the barbaric aggression against Palestinian people.

Hamdan said in a press conference, Saturday evening, in keeping pace with the developments of the ongoing Israeli occupation against the Gaza Strip, that the movement has received the general framework proposal that was circulated at the Paris Quartet meeting, and we affirm that the leadership discussion and consultation about it is based on the basis of the negotiations reaching a complete end to the Israeli aggression against our Palestinian people and complete withdrawal of the occupation army from the Gaza Strip.

He stressed that his movement seeks to stop the hand of this criminal enemy, which has killed civilians, including children, women and the elderly, and destroyed the civil structure and human life in the Gaza Strip, and continues its war in the West Bank and Jerusalem, and against our heroic prisoners in prisons.

Hamdan added: We confirm that our study of the proposal is also based on lifting the siege that has been ongoing on the Gaza Strip for 17 years, providing shelter for the displaced, rebuilding what was destroyed by the occupation, completing a serious prisoner exchange deal, and practical international recognition of the right of our people to self-determination and establishing their independent, fully sovereign state with Jerusalem as its capital.

He appreciated the efforts made by the brothers in Egypt and Qatar to reach a sustainable ceasefire agreement in Gaza on the path to ending the Nazi aggression that continues against the Palestinian people.
