Palestinian resistance group Hamas is ready to reach a cease-fire in Gaza, a senior official said Wednesday, hailing the cease-fire that took hold in Lebanon.
"We have informed mediators in Egypt, Qatar and Türkiye that Hamas is ready for a cease-fire agreement and a serious deal to exchange prisoners," the official told AFP, however accusing Israel of obstructing an agreement.
Meanwhile, Hamas official Sami Abu Zuhri told Reuters on Wednesday that the group "appreciates" Lebanon's right to reach an agreement that protects the people of Lebanon and hoped for a deal to end the war in Gaza.
