Netanyahu: Hamas's refusal of a deal - evidence of damage caused by UN

Following the Israeli delegation's return from Qatar due to stalled negotiations with Hamas, the Prime Minister's Office responded: "Hamas' position clearly proves that it is not interested in continuing negotiations, and is an unfortunate testimony to the damage caused by the Security Council's decision.

"Hamas once again rejected any American compromise proposal and repeated its extreme demands: An immediate end to the war, a complete withdrawal of the IDF from Gaza, and remaining in power so that it can repeat the October 7 massacre again and again, as it has promised to.

"Hamas refused any American compromise proposal, and also welcomed the Security Council's decision. Israel will not submit to the delusional demands of Hamas, and will continue to act to achieve all the goals of the war: The release of hostages, destruction of the military and governmental capabilities of Hamas, and ensuring that Gaza no longer poses a threat to Israel."
