Houses destroyed by Israeli shelling in the Gaza Strip- photo from Palestinian journalists in the StripCAIRO – 25 December 2023: Hamas will not negotiate with Israel unless the latter stops its aggression against the Gaza Strip, said Hamas leader Izzat al-Rishq in a statement on Monday. He added that Hamas leadership seeks with all forces to stop the aggression and massacres against the Palestinians completely not temporarily. A delegation of the Palestinian Jehad Movement led by the movement’s Secretary General Zeyad Nakhala arrived in Egypt Sunday to discuss the conditions in Gaza Strip. In the second stage, Hamas releases female soldiers and bodies, in exchange for Israel releasing prisoners and agreeing to a truce. They also insist on releasing all Israeli captives for all Palestinian prisoners who are inside Israeli prisons.
