Hamas has remained steadfast to its position towards a truce proposal and stuck to its approval of it, a member of Hamas’ political bureau, Izzat El-Reshiq, said in a statement on Thursday.
Reshiq’s comments came as Cairo hosted new ceasefire talks attended by delegations from Hamas, Israel, the United States and Qatar in an attempt to conclude a deal.
President Joe Biden on May 8 publicly warned Israel for the first time that the U.S. would stop supplying weapons if Israeli forces make a major invasion of Rafah, a refugee-packed city in southern Gaza.
