A senior Egyptian who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity says terror group Hamas has rejected Israel’s proposal for a two-month ceasefire in which Hamas would release Israeli hostages in exchange for Palestinian security prisoners.

The official says Hamas leaders have also refused to leave Gaza and are demanding that Israel fully withdraw from the territory and allow Palestinians to return to their homes.

Under Israel’s proposal, Yahya Sinwar and other top Hamas leaders in Gaza would be allowed to relocate to other countries.

The official says Egypt and Qatar, which have brokered past agreements between Israel and Hamas, are developing a multi-stage proposal to try to bridge the gaps. The proposal would include ending the war, releasing the hostages and putting forth a vision for resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

    So Israel gave these stupid terms that anyone with a brain cell would refuse, and the 4 Zainoist here will claim “Hamas doesn’t care about Palestinians life, look they refused a peace deal”

      When did Hamas suddenly become the good guys anyways? Both leaderships need to go, but acting like Hamas aren’t a bunch of self interested fucks is just silly
