The Hamas representative in Lebanon, Ahmad Abdel Hadi, announced that "two days ago, Hamas presented its vision to initiate negotiations to stop the aggression, which included three-stage conditions." 

In an interview with Al Mayadeen, Abdel Hadi highlighted that Hamas has shown flexibility in prisoner-captive talks, "but this can't be achieved except with international guarantees to stop the aggression," stressing the occupation's procrastination and deception, pointing out that "the ball is in the occupation and Washington's court." 

Abdul Hadi added that expanding the war is in Netanyahu's interest because stopping it would put him on trial and later in prison. 

As for the United States, Abdel Hadi stressed that the US administration is practicing double standards because while it talks about sending aid to Gaza, "it is not putting any pressure on the occupation to stop its aggression." 

He also stressed that the ongoing genocide and threat to invade Rafah fall within the framework of pressuring the resistance to lower its bargaining limits in negotiations.

Concerning what's happening in the Gaza Strip, the Hamas representative affirmed to Al Mayadeen that the resistance today "is managing battles proficiently in all areas of the Gaza Strip, and will continue to inflict losses on the enemy. It is ready for any scenario, in addition to the balance of power in the region, especially regarding the supporting fronts."
 
He further commented that "the current situation has proven that the battlefield shapes the course of the next phase," highlighting "the establishment of committees by the factions to oversee the situation in Gaza."

Abdel Hadi concluded his statement to Al Mayadeen by saying "Hamas, along with all the Palestinian people, express their gratitude to the resistance fighters from Yemen to Iraq to Lebanon."

In the same context, earlier this week, Israeli media outlets reported on Tuesday evening that Brigadier General Nitzan Alon, a reserve officer in the Israeli occupation military and a delegate in the team negotiating a prisoner exchange deal, has resigned from his position due to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's refusal to expand the authority of the negotiating team.

The Israeli Channel 13 noted that Alon's resignation comes in the wake of a "paralysis" in efforts to retrieve Israeli captives held by the Palestinian Resistance in Gaza, suggesting that the resignation reflects his frustration with the handling of the captives file and that the Israeli government does not intend to take serious steps to reach a prisoner exchange deal.

In the same context, Israeli political and security officials accused Netanyahu of "obstructing a deal with Hamas." The officials pointed out that the Israeli Prime Minister is blaming the Palestinian group for hindering the agreement and claiming it seeks to escalate the situation in the region during Ramadan, describing Netanyahu's claims as "a series of lies."
