Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh said Wednesday his group has presented a “comprehensive vision” to halt the Israeli offensive on the Gaza Strip.
“This vision starts with halting the aggression, opening the border crossings, exchanging prisoners, and opening a political horizon for establishing a Palestinian state and for self-determination,” Haniyeh said in a televised speech.
“[Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu, however, is procrastinating and deceiving his supporters with false promises,” he added.
Haniyeh said the current conflict was caused by Netanyahu “who leads a ‘right-wing racist fascist’ group.”
The Hamas leader demanded supporters of Israel, including the US, to “stop hindering international efforts to halt aggression.”
The Israeli army has expanded its air and ground attacks on the Gaza Strip, which has been under relentless airstrikes since the surprise attack by Hamas on Oct. 7.
More than 10,300 people have since been killed in the conflict, including at least 8,796 Palestinians and more than 1,538 Israelis.
Besides the large number of casualties and displacement, basic supplies are running low for the 2.3 million people in Gaza due to the Israeli siege.
