Senior Hamas official Sami Abu Zuhri said, as quoted by Reuters on Tuesday, that the movement has agreed to a UN Security Council resolution for a ceasefire and is open to negotiating the specifics.

He also emphasized that it is the responsibility of Washington to ensure "Israel's" compliance with the resolution.

"The US administration is facing a real test to carry out its commitments in compelling the occupation to immediately end the war in an implementation of the UN Security Council resolution," Abu Zuhri stressed.

This comes after the United Nations Security Council on Monday adopted a resolution regarding the Gaza ceasefire proposal put forth by US President Joe Biden.

The resolution, drafted by the United States, received overwhelming support, with 14 members voting in favor and Russia abstaining.

The ceasefire proposal, announced by Biden on May 31, outlines a new three-phase plan aimed at achieving "a lasting cessation of hostilities" in the Gaza Strip and the release of all Israeli captives.

Hamas welcomed the ceasefire proposal, saying, "We welcome the contents of the Security Council resolution regarding a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, complete withdrawal, the return of displaced persons, and reconstruction."

The Resistance group emphasized its firm stance against any demographic changes or reduction in the area of the Gaza Strip and highlighted the need for essential aid to support the people in the territory.

Moreover, the representative of Hamas in Lebanon, Ahmad Abdul-Hadi, told Al Mayadeen that the UNSC's resolution is a direct result of the steadfastness of the Palestinian people and their Resistance. 

The representative warned against the continuous threats issued by Israeli officials regarding the continuation of the war on Gaza despite the decision, stressing that these statements should be reviewed by the UNSC. 

The United States called on the United Nations Security Council last Monday to adopt a resolution supporting the Gaza ceasefire and prisoner exchange deal between "Israel" and the Palestinian Resistance laid out by President Joe Biden, Reuters reported on Tuesday.
