A member of Hamas’s political bureau said Monday that the movement will not engage in a new round of negotiations with ‘Israel’ amidst a large-scale massacres being committed everyday by the Israeli army in Rafah, southern Gaza.
“The movement will not accept negotiations getting used, time and again, to buy more time for [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu’s government to carry out its plots in the Gaza Strip,” Bassem Naim told the Russian state-owned news agency.
In a press statement, Hamas movement hardly condemned the horrific massacre committed by the Israeli army in Tel Sultan, west of Rafah, a short while ago, affirming that this is a blatant challenge, complete disregard, and defiance of the ICJ’s decision, which demanded its forces to halt its aggression on Rafah.
“We hold the US administration and President Biden, in particular, fully responsible for this massacre, which the Israeli zionists would not have committed without American support and its green light to invade Rafah, despite the city is overcrowded with displaced citizens,” the statement reads.
The Israeli public radio Kan reported that earlier, in ‘Israel’, they are awaiting Hamas’s response on whether there is a way to proceed with negotiations for reaching a deal.
On Sunday night, the Israeli army attacked a tents’ camp in Rafah housing 100,000forcibly displaced Palestinians, killing at least 50 civilians including babies whose bodies were recovered without their heads.
The fires that engulfed the displacement tents left people trapped inside and burnt them to death.
Since October 7, the Israeli forces have committed hundreds of massacres and even killed people while alive, burying them in mass graves.
