Hamas: We decided to hand over 4 bodies of the occupation detainees next Thursday
The head of the Hamas movement in the Gaza Strip, Khalil Al-Hayya, confirmed that the movement has proven its seriousness in implementing the agreement in coordination with the resistance factions and with full responsibility.
Al-Hayya accused, in a statement today, the Israeli occupation and Benjamin Netanyahu's government of procrastination and trying to evade implementing the agreed-upon obligations, pointing out that the occupation's intransigence is obstructing efforts to reach serious solutions.
Al-Hayya said that he decided to hand over the bodies of 4 of the occupation detainees next Thursday.
Hamas will release all 6 living detainees included in the first phase, and will also release 4 bodies on Thursday, including the bodies of the Bibas family, in preparation for engaging in the second phase of the deal negotiations and in response to the efforts of the mediators.
He explained that he decided to hand over 6 of the occupation's detainees next Saturday.
Al-Hayya stressed the need to oblige the Israeli occupation to implement all the terms of the agreement without delay, noting that "Israel" is still evading engaging in the second phase negotiations.
Al-Hayya explained that Hamas is ready to immediately engage in implementing the provisions of the second phase, which includes a complete ceasefire and the withdrawal of the occupation forces from the Strip.
