Senior Hamas official Mohammed Nazzal accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of deliberately seeking to undermine the Sharm El-Sheikh agreement, warning that the Palestinian Resistance will not tolerate continued violations of the ceasefire.

Speaking to Al Mayadeen on Wednesday, Nazzal said Netanyahu and “the ruling gang in the Zionist entity” are attempting to provoke conflict by claiming Hamas has not adhered to the terms of the agreement.

“Netanyahu is willing, with premeditation and malice aforethought, to violate the agreement and send a message that he can violate it whenever he wants,” Nazzal stated.

Nazzal criticized Washington’s historical role in the region, saying US administrations have shown bias toward the Israelis, urging that "We should not deceive ourselves into thinking we are dealing with a neutral and just administration.”

He added that Trump is no longer capable of defending "Israel", not only in the Arab and Muslim world but globally.

Resistance remains committed, but options are open

Regarding the Resistance’s current stance, Nazzal emphasized that the Resistance factions do not want to give Netanyahu any pretext to resume the war of extermination, but continued violations may change this position.

Nazzal added that Hamas still holds significant leverage, including bodies of IOF weapons, and above all, the justice of its cause.

Hamas holds talks with Qatar and Turkey on weapons

Nazzal confirmed that ongoing talks are being held with Qatari and Turkish officials in Doha. He denied reports suggesting that the Qatari Prime Minister had called for the disarmament of Hamas but acknowledged that the issue of weapons was raised.

“No final position has been formulated on the matter,” he said.

Commenting on the post-war governance of the Gaza Strip, Nazzal said Hamas had presented a proposal that was agreed upon by eight Palestinian factions during meetings in Cairo. The proposal includes the formation of a committee of independent technocrats.

The movement firmly rejected the idea of a High Commissioner, calling it a form of recolonization. On the suggestion of deploying an international force, Nazzal said discussions were ongoing, with no official position yet.

Ceasefire collapse could broader resistance response

In conclusion, Nazzal warned that the expansion of Israeli operations and the crossing of the yellow line represent a de facto cancellation of the ceasefire agreement.

“This transgression calls for a stance from the Palestinian factions,” he said, stressing that resistance options remain open, but with responsibility.

Medical sources in hospitals across the Gaza Strip reported early on Wednesday that at least 90 Palestinians, including 24 children, were martyred in a new wave of Israeli airstrikes. The attacks targeted the homes and tents of displaced Palestinians in multiple areas of the Strip.

This escalation marks a serious violation of the ceasefire agreement that came into effect on October 11, raising concerns over the safety of civilians who had sought shelter in what were considered safe zones.
