Biden accuses Hamas of impeding Gaza deal
Savelletri, Italy – AFP
US President Joe Biden said Thursday that “the biggest hang-up so far” to a deal on a Gaza truce and prisoner release is Hamas.
“I’ve laid out an approach that has been endorsed by the UN Security Council, by the G7, by the Israelis, and the biggest hang-up so far is Hamas refusing to sign on even though they have submitted something similar,” he told reporters at a G7 summit.
Biden last week revealed a multi-step plan for which failed to meet the key demand of Hamas for permanent cease-fire by Israel.
Israel has killed more than 37,000 Palestinians in Gaza — most of them women and children — since October last year.
