The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) announced on Tuesday that it is possible to reach an agreement with Israel to cease fire in the Gaza Strip and exchange prisoners, if it does not set new conditions.

Hamas stressed, in a brief statement, that "in light of the serious and positive discussions taking place in Doha today, under the auspices of the Qatari and Egyptian mediator brothers, reaching an agreement for a ceasefire and prisoner exchange is possible, if the occupation stops setting new conditions."
