Hamas After Hezbollah? Hamas Says Ready for Gaza Ceasefire After Hezbollah Lays Down Arms

Hamas, the Palestinian militant group, has expressed its readiness to enter into a ceasefire agreement in Gaza following Hezbollah's decision to lay down its arms and reach a ceasefire with Israel. The group, which has been engaged in ongoing hostilities with Israel, cited the ceasefire brokered by the US and France between Hezbollah and Israel as a key development signaling a shift toward peace efforts. Hamas conveyed to international mediators, including those from Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey, that it is prepared for serious negotiations, including a potential exchange of prisoners. However, Hamas also accused Israel of obstructing progress on the ceasefire front. This move by Hamas comes amid mounting pressure from international actors to bring an end to the conflicts involving Israel, Hezbollah, and Hamas in the region. #HamasCeasefire #GazaTruce #HezbollahLaysDownArms #MiddleEastPeace #IsraelGazaConflict #GazaCeasefire #HezbollahIsraelTruce #HamasReadyForCeasefire #IsraelHezbollahDeal #PalestinePeaceTalks #GazaConflictUpdate #MideastDiplomacy #CeasefireEfforts #HamasNegotiations #PeaceInGaza ~PR.152~HT.318~ED.346~GR.124~
