“We’re Discussing a Framework Agreement. It Includes Three Points: Ending Aggressive, Withdrawal From Gaza and Safe Aid Distribution,” He Said. “Israel Wants to Skip Straight to The Prisoners’ File Without Guarantees On The Main Issues.”
Al-Hindi Accused Israel of Seeking to Control the Southern City of Rafah and Force Civilians into Overcrowded, Bombed-Out Areas Under The Guise of Aid Distribution.
“We Cannot Legitimise these aid traps that are Killing Our People. The Resistance Will Not sign Any Agreement That Amounts To Surrender,” He Said.
