In a significant development, senior Hamas official Mahmoud al-Mardawi has announced that the Hamas movement is ready to cooperate in implementing the recently approved United Nations Security Council (UNSC) ceasefire resolution for Gaza.
Speaking to the Palestinian Samaa News Agency, al-Mardawi expressed Hamas' willingness to work with mediators to ensure the resolution's success.
āWe welcome the UNSC resolution regarding the ceasefire in Gaza and are ready to cooperate with the mediators to implement it,ā he said.
He emphasised the need for a public commitment from Israel regarding the ceasefire before entering into negotiations.
Furthermore, al-Mardawi insisted that the United States must serve as the guarantor of the agreement.
A historic ceasefire deal has been reached between Israel and Hamas after 15 months of devastating conflict in Gaza. The agreement, brokered by Qatar, includes the release of Israeli hostages and Palestinian prisoners, as well as the return of displaced residents to their homes. Humanitarian aid will flow into Gaza, providing much-needed relief. The ceasefire, set to begin on January 19, 2025, offers a glimmer of hope for lasting peace in the region.

The Israel-Hamas conflict has been marked by pivotal moments of violence and tension. The war escalated dramatically on October 7, 2023, when Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel during the Shemini Atzeret holiday, including the massacre at the Nova Music Festival. The assault, which involved a barrage of rockets and the infiltration of militants into Israel, resulted in the deaths of over 1,200 people, with families targeted in their homes in kibbutzim.
The brutal nature of this attack prompted Israel to declare a state of war, followed by a complete siege of Gaza. The humanitarian toll was staggering, with over 1.4 million Palestinians displaced in the ensuing weeks. The war continued with significant losses on both sides, including the deaths of high-ranking individuals such as Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar. On October 17, 2024, Sinwar was killed in an Israeli operation, marking a key turning point in the conflict

In a chilling propaganda display, Hamas handed released hostages bizarre āgift bagsā featuring photos of their captivity, a commemorative Gaza photo, and gold-gilded ācertificates of release.ā The released hostages, Romi Gonen, Emily Damari, and Doron Steinbrecher, described the gesture as a ācynical gameā aimed at psychological manipulation. Video footage shared by Hamas shows the hostages being escorted through Gaza City by a motorcade of armed, masked terrorists, with crowds mobbing the vehicles. Eventually handed over to the Red Cross, the hostages were transported to safety, marking the first phase of a cease-fire deal.

Israeli forces fired bullets and tear gas at Palestinian families gathered near Ofer Prison, awaiting the release of prisoners under a ceasefire deal with Hamas. The attack injured seven people and came amid heightened security measures to suppress public gatherings. Families were warned against celebrating or displaying Palestinian flags, with threats of canceling releases. This incident follows Israeli PM Netanyahu's statement reserving the "right" to resume the war on Gaza, which has claimed nearly 47,000 Palestinian lives.
