At a time when the Zionist enemy intensifies its genocidal war against our steadfast people in the Gaza Strip, we, the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), are exerting all our efforts and energies around the clock to end this escalating suffering. This remains a top priority for the movement’s leadership in its continuous engagement with mediators, countries, and all relevant parties to stop the famine and halt this criminal war.

While we recognize the extent of the blackmail practiced by the occupation through committing massacres against our people in a desperate attempt to extract concessions it has failed to impose at the negotiating table, we affirm that we are proceeding with responsibility, rationality, and the utmost urgency. We are continuing our consultations and communications with Palestinian forces and factions to reach an honorable agreement that leads to stopping the aggression, ending the genocide, achieving our people’s goals of reconstruction, lifting the siege, and ensuring a dignified life for our people in the Gaza Strip.
