Israel’s prime minister says they will not accept Hamas’ demands for a cease-fire after the militant group rejected the latest proposal for a truce. Hamas rejected the latest ceasefire proposal late Monday with a statement accusing Israel of ignoring its core demands, including an end to the war and a full withdrawal from Gaza.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel would not give in to Hamas’ “delusional” demands and continue to work to destroy the militant group’s military and governing capabilities, as well as seek the release of the remaining hostages. Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz said the UN Security Council’s calling for an immediate ceasefire and the release of all hostages emboldened Hamas to reject the deal.
