Hamas: Netanyahu’s remarks reflect psychological defeat

Hamas official Izzat Al-Risheq commented on 'Israeli' Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s statements regarding the “release of all hostages and Hamas’ surrender,” saying that such remarks do not reflect the military reality, but rather “the psychological defeat” of the 'Israel’s' leadership.

Risheq stated, “The enemy’s leaders’ acknowledgment of their total failure to recover their captives through military operations indicates that the only solution to secure their release is through a serious deal with the resistance.”

He added, “Gaza will not surrender, and it is the resistance that will dictate the terms, just as it has imposed the equations on the ground.”
