Israel's Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has dismissed Hamas's proposed ceasefire terms, asserting that "total victory" in Gaza could be achieved within months. This statement follows Hamas's presentation of a set of demands in response to an Israel-backed ceasefire initiative. Netanyahu characterized negotiations with Hamas as unproductive, labeling their terms as "bizarre." He emphasized the pursuit of "complete and final victory" and warned of future conflicts if Hamas remains in control of Gaza. Reuters reported a senior Hamas official's view that Netanyahu's rejection of the ceasefire indicates his intention to prolong the conflict. Talks between negotiators are ongoing, with Egypt and Qatar set to host a new round of negotiations in Cairo, according to an Egyptian official source. Egypt urges all parties to demonstrate flexibility to reach a peaceful agreement.
