Hamas: Biden's Hostage Release Statements 'Setback' in Ceasefire Negotiations

Hamas announced today that yesterday's statements by US President Joe Biden regarding the release of hostages constitute a “setback” in the negotiations for a truce in the Gaza Strip. Yesterday Biden estimated that a truce in the war between Israel and Hamas is possible even “tomorrow”, if Hamas releases the hostages it is holding. “We condemn this position of the American president, we consider it a setback to the results of the last round of negotiations,” during which Hamas accepted a proposal by mediators, the Palestinian movement said in a statement. At the same time, Hamas emphasized that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “forced the derailment” of the talks by launching an attack on Rafah, the city in the southern Gaza Strip.
