Palestinian Resistance factions say the Israeli occupation bears responsibility for the renewal of the aggression on the Gaza Strip.

The Palestinian Resistance movement Hamas held the Israeli occupation responsible for resuming the aggression on the Gaza Strip after it refused to accept proposals to release Israeli captives.

Immediately after the expiration of the humanitarian truce between the Palestinian Resistance and the Israeli occupation, "Israel" renewed its aggression on Gaza, bombing civilian houses indiscriminately and killing tens of Gazans across the besieged Strip in a couple of hours.

In a statement on Friday, the movement stressed that the Israeli occupation bears responsibility for the resumption of war and the Nazi aggression against the Gaza Strip, after refusing throughout the night to accept all offers to release additional captives.

The statement pointed out that Hamas offered to exchange prisoners and the elderly as well as hand over the bodies of the captives killed as a result of the Israeli bombing.

It added that the movement also offered to hand over the bodies of the Bibas family and release their father so that he could participate in their burial ceremonies, in addition to handing over two Israeli captives. Hamas confirmed that all of these proposals were rejected by the Israeli occupation because it had a prior decision to resume the criminal aggression on Gaza.

Likewise, the movement held the US administration and its President Joe Biden fully responsible for the continuation of Zionist war crimes in the Gaza Strip, after its absolute support for it, and after the green light it gave it again following the visit of its Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken, to "Israel" on Thursday and his announcement of the Israeli occupation’s intention to resume the aggression.

The statement concluded by affirming that the steadfast Palestinian people and their resistance will thwart the goals of this criminal aggression and will break the will of the defeated, US-backed occupation army.

The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) also said the US administration bears full responsibility for the renewed Zionist aggression against the Gaza Strip this morning, adding that the Biden administration continues to give the Israeli occupation a green light to continue its war of extermination against the Palestinian people.

The PFLP called on the masses to mobilize in squares and besiege the embassies of aggression in the world to pressure them to stop the war on Gaza.

On its part, the Qatari Foreign Ministry also announced on Friday that negotiations between the Israeli occupation and the Palestinian Resistance to return to a truce continue despite the resumed Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip.

"The State of Qatar expresses its deep regret at the resumption of the Israeli aggression against the Gaza Strip following the end of the humanitarian pause, without reaching an agreement to extend it. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirms that negotiations between the two sides are continuing with the aim of returning to a pause," the Ministry said in a statement posted on X.

Qatar will continue efforts to reach the humanitarian truce and "will not hesitate to do everything necessary to return to calm," the statement read.

"The Ministry stresses that the continued bombing of the Gaza Strip in the first hours after the end of the pause complicates mediation efforts and exacerbates the humanitarian catastrophe in the Strip, and in this context calls on the international community to move quickly to stop the violence."

Elsewhere, the Qatari Foreign Ministry called for an immediate ceasefire and ensuring the continuous and unhindered flow of relief convoys and humanitarian aid.
