The Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) told the outside world on the evening of the 6th local time that the organization had responded to Qatar and Egypt on the framework agreement related to the Israeli peace talks after completing internal leadership consultations and communication with other resistance factions.
The Quartet of Qatar, Israel, the United States and Egypt reached a framework agreement on a phased ceasefire in the Gaza Strip on 28 January in Paris, France. After that, the Chi-side handed over the agreement to Hamas.
Reuters reported that details of Hamas's response to the truce remain unclear. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office said later that day that "those involved in the truce negotiations are carefully assessing" Hamas's response.
Reuters also quoted information from Hamad, a senior Hamad, who said that Hamas is determined to demand that Israel release as many Palestinians as possible from Israeli prisons.
Hamad said it took some time for them to respond because there was "a lot of ambiguity and ambiguity" in the agreement, referring to "Netanyahu's attempt to convince everyone that he has won or will win in order to preserve his unity."

At a press conference after the talks, Mohammed and Blinken confirmed that the Qatari side had received a positive response from the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) on the same day to the framework of the ceasefire agreement on the establishment of a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and the release of detainees.
Mohammed said that the Qatari side has received a positive response from Hamas on the framework agreement, and the Qatari side is optimistic that the two sides of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict will eventually reach an agreement, which brings hope that the two sides will reach an agreement as soon as possible. But he did not give further details.
Blinken said that he would discuss Hamas's response with Israel during his visit to Israel on the 7th.
However, on the evening of the 6th, the Israeli public broadcaster quoted Israel** as saying that Israeli officials would not accept any conditions for the cessation of military operations put forward by the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas). The same argument was that Hamas's response to the offer to exchange detainees was "negative".
Biden acknowledged that there had been "some progress" in the talks on the deal, but he called Hamas's demands "a bit excessive" and did not elaborate. "We're not very sure about the current situation," Biden said. Negotiations are ongoing. ”
