“No response has yet arrived from Hamas” on the proposed agreement for the truce in Gaza: this was said by White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre, while Yahya Sinwar – leader of Hamas in Gaza – considers the proposed agreement for a truce as “a trap”, reports Israeli TV Channel 12.
According to Sinwar, “the proposal on the table is not an Egyptian proposal, but an Israeli proposal in disguise.”
Jean-Pierre meanwhile reiterated: “We believe that all efforts must be made to convince Hamas to accept the agreement immediately.”
According to Israeli sources, the Jewish state was expecting a response from the Palestinian faction on the draft agreement by yesterday evening. Meanwhile, protests continue in US universities: the police fired rubber bullets at demonstrators at the University of Arizona, 19 people were arrested at the University of Texas and at least 15 people were injured in clashes at the University of California.
