Hamas said it is “seriously ready to enter immediately into a round of negotiations” for a new ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.

The Palestinian militant group said in a statement late Friday that it had given a “positive response” to a U.S.-brokered proposal for a 60-day ceasefire. If successful, a truce deal would pause the war between Hamas and Israel that has devastated Gaza and escalated tensions in the wider Middle East since October 2023.

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Friday that there could be a ceasefire deal next week. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to visit Washington on Monday, where he is expected to discuss the terms of the ceasefire deal with Trump.

Weird, they've been the only ones willing to actually negotiate in good faith this entire time but media still acting like they're the blockers

Netanyahu ending the war? The war that's postponing his corruption trial? Magic 8 Ball says, "BULLSHIT".
