Hamas reaffirms demands in response to mediator's ceasefire proposal, adds more
“Nuts!”
[GEO.TV] Hamas has sent its response to the Gaza ceasefire proposal to Egyptian and Qatari mediators, in which it reaffirmed its demands, the Gaza-ruling movement said in a statement on Saturday.

Hamas reiterated its demands, including a permanent ceasefire, the withdrawal of all Israeli forces from the Gaza Strip, the return of displaced Palestinians to their homes, the facilitation of more relief supplies and aid into Gaza, and the start of reconstruction efforts in the coastal enclave.

In response to the ceasefire proposal delivered on April 8, Hamas stressed its readiness to conclude a serious prisoner-hostage exchange agreement with Israel.
It sounds considerably more unreasonable when the Times of Israel lays out the rest of Hamas’s demands. Bet they’re sorry now that they waited for Iran’s big attack to relieve them:
IsraelTimes] Hamas has presented a hostage release proposal to mediators in which it demands Israel observe a six-week ceasefire before it receives any of the 129 hostages held by the terror group since October 7, Hebrew daily Haaretz reports.

The terror group’s proposal was reportedly submitted after it rejected the US-mediated deal late last night.

In the proposal, Hamas suggests that the IDF would be required to cease all fighting in Gaza and retreat from urban areas for six weeks, allowing displaced Palestinians to return north. Only after the end of the six weeks would any hostages be released, Hamas says, claiming that it would use the weeks of paused hostilities to locate the hostages and ascertain what condition they are in.

The terror group’s draft stipulates that 30 Palestinian prisoners would be released for every Israeli civilian — a steep increase from the 3:1 ratio of the weeklong November truce. It also demands that 50 Palestinian prisoners — 30 of them serving life sentences — be released for every captive soldier.

Israel has previously dismissed similar demands as “delusional” and the number of Palestinian prisoners Hamas has demanded, as well as the severity of their crimes, has been a sticking point in several previous rounds of negotiations.
