Hamas spokesperson Hazem Qassem on Thursday accused 'Israel' of continuing its violations in Gaza, including targeting civilians, burning their tents, and demolishing remaining homes, while maintaining the closure of the Rafah crossing.
Qassem emphasized that Hamas remains committed to the ceasefire agreement and recently handed over the body of an 'Israeli' captive in line with prior arrangements.
He affirmed that the movement will continue working to complete the full prisoner exchange.
He called on mediators, guarantor countries, and parties that met in Sharm El-Sheikh to exert serious pressure on 'Israel' to halt its violations and fulfill its commitments under the agreement, particularly the reopening of the Rafah crossing in both directions.
