Hamas has not received US President Donald Trump’s Gaza ceasefire plan, the Palestinian group, which runs the enclave, said on Saturday as Israeli forces expanded their assault on Gaza.
The comments came after Israeli newspaper Haaretz cited sources saying Hamas had agreed in principle to release all the Israeli hostages it holds in return for hundreds of Palestinian prisoners and the gradual withdrawal of Israeli troops under Trump’s plan.
Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia warned that the international community’s failure to rein in Israeli genocide in besieged Gaza threatens to undermine regional and global stability, urging decisive action to halt the conflict and support Palestinian statehood.
“The international community’s inaction in restraining the (Israeli) aggression on Gaza will contribute to destabilising security and stability regionally and globally,” Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan told the 80th UN General Assembly in New York.
