Gaza, 3 Ramadhan 1436/20 June 2015 (MINA) – Prominent Hamas leader Khalil Al-Hayya described the reports about a new truce between his movement and the Israeli occupation as an attempt to “distract” the public and “alluding” that Gaza’s problems can be solved with a truce, Felesteen newspaper said yesterday.
On Twitter he explained that those who speak about a new truce have ignored the ceasefire deal reached between the Palestinian factions and the Israeli occupation last August, Middle East Monitor (MEMO) quoted by Mi’raj Islamic News Agency (MINA) as reporting.
The Egyptian-sponsored deal includes lifting the eight-year Israeli siege on Gaza and rebuilding the houses and other facilities destroyed by the occupation during the 51-day Israeli offensive.
“Our demand is the commitment of the Israeli occupation to the obligations in the deal,” he said, “the main obligation is opening the Rafah crossing and allowing the entrance of rebuilding material.” (T/R05/R04)
