Hamas has withdrawn from participating in ceasefire negotiations, the CNN reported on Friday, citing two unidentified sources.
The Israeli newspaper, The Jerusalem Post, reported earlier on Wednesday that Hamas was linking ceasefire negotiations in Gaza to changes in the humanitarian situation in the strip.
Negotiations are currently at a standstill, amid warnings from the mediators that failure to renew the dialogue could lead to a serious deterioration in the situation inside Gaza Strip.
A senior Israeli official told The Jerusalem Post on Wednesday that his country had submitted a document containing amendments to Hamas’s response, which was presented during the Israeli delegation’s stay in Qatar, via the mediators participating in the mediation efforts.
