The Palestinian movement Hamas’ response to the United States proposal for a ceasefire in Gaza is "totally unacceptable," US Special Presidential Envoy Steve Witkoff said, APA reports citing TASS.
"I received the Hamas response to the United States’ proposal. It is totally unacceptable and only takes us backward," he wrote on the X social media platform.
According to Witkoff, "Hamas should accept the framework proposal we put forward as the basis for proximity talks, which we can begin immediately this coming week."
"That is the only way we can close a 60-day ceasefire deal in the coming days in which half of the living hostages and half of those who are deceased will come home to their families and in which we can have at the proximity talks substantive negotiations in good-faith to try to reach a permanent ceasefire," the US envoy added.
