Hamas weighs US ceasefire plan as Israel intensifies Gaza strikes; stops short of a full \u2018yes\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Palestinian group Hamas says it is studying new proposals for a temporary ceasefire in Gaza, but insisted it is seeking an agreement that would bring an end to Israel\u2019s war<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hamas said in a statement on Wednesday that it had received proposals from the mediators and is holding talks with them to \u201cbridge gaps\u201d to return to the negotiating table and try to reach a ceasefire agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The group said it was aiming for an agreement that would end the Gaza war and ensure the withdrawal of Israeli forces from the enclave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The announcement comes a day after United States President Donald Trump said Israel had agreed to a proposal for a 60-day ceasefire in Gaza and urged Hamas to accept the deal before conditions worsen. Trump has been increasing pressure on the Israeli government and Hamas to broker a ceasefire and an agreement for the group to release the Israeli captives held in Gaza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump said the 60-day period would be used to work towards ending the war \u2013 something Israel says it will not accept until Hamas is defeated. Trump is due to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu next week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But Hamas\u2019s announcement, which emphasised its demand that the war end, raised questions about whether the latest offer could materialise into an actual pause in fighting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shortly after the Hamas statement, Netanyahu said \u201cthere will be no Hamas\u201d in post-war Gaza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Israeli officials have warned that the country\u2019s military will escalate its operations in Gaza if ceasefire negotiations do not advance soon, according to the US-based Axios news outlet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019ll do to Gaza City and the central camps what we did to Rafah. Everything will turn to dust,\u201d the outlet quoted a senior Israeli official as saying. \u201cIt\u2019s not our preferred option, but if there\u2019s no movement towards a hostage deal, we won\u2019t have any other choice.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar said any opportunity to free captives held in Gaza should not be missed, adding that there is a lot of support, both in the cabinet and within the public at large, for the US-backed proposal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The proposal, though, has not been publicly backed by National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Al Jazeera\u2019s Hani Mahmoud, reporting from Gaza City, said Palestinians mistrust Trump and have been disappointed several times by mooted ceasefires that have failed to materialise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere are headlines that are talking about a potential agreement and an end to the genocide, but what we\u2019re seeing on the ground, the reality tells a different story. An average of 100 to 120 Palestinians are killed every single day,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSo for a lot of people, there is a lot of hypocrisy going on. If you talk about a ceasefire, then you need to create the conditions that would lead to a ceasefire, not an escalation, and what we are seeing on the ground is definitely an escalation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hospital director killed<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In Gaza, Israeli forces killed at least 78 people on Wednesday<\/a>, according to Palestinian health authorities. Hospital officials said four children and seven women were among the dead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the victims was Dr Marwan al-Sultan, director of the Indonesian Hospital, who was killed in an Israeli strike on a residential building in an area southwest of Gaza City, according to our colleagues at Al Jazeera Arabic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His wife and children were also killed in the attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Al-Sultan was a key source of information from Gaza, reporting on the conditions of Palestinians in the north of the besieged enclave. He had repeatedly called on the international community<\/a> to press for medical teams\u2019 safety, including when the Israeli army laid siege or struck the Indonesian Hospital, the largest medical facility north of Gaza City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Israel\u2019s war on Gaza<\/a> has killed at least 56,647 people and wounded 134,105, according to Gaza\u2019s Health Ministry. An estimated 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the Hamas-led October 7, 2023 attacks, and more than 200 were taken captive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The war has left the coastal Palestinian territory in ruins, with much of the urban landscape flattened in the fighting. More than 90 percent of Gaza\u2019s 2.3 million population has been displaced, often multiple times. The war has caused a humanitarian crisis in Gaza, pushing hundreds of thousands of people to famine-like conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
