Hamas refuses to attend Gaza cease-fire talks as Biden says it’s ‘still possible’ to reach deal
Fox News
Hamas said Sunday it would not participate in new negotiations for a ceasefire in Gaza this week unless mediators presented a plan based on previous talks.
The terrorist group, which is still holding dozens of hostages including Americans, said it has shown "flexibility" throughout the negotiating process but that Israeli actions – including the assassination of its leader, Ismail Haniyeh, in Tehran last month – indicate it is not serious about pursuing a cease-fire agreement.
