The Israeli occupation and the United States have made no gains whatsoever, failing to accomplish any achievements on the political and military fronts, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian said on Friday.

During a meeting with Hamas politburo chief Ismail Haniyeh, Hossein Amir-Abdollahian underlined that the reverberations of Operation al-Aqsa Flood were felt all around the world, though human casualties suffered by the Palestinian people in Gaza were "devastating, but the resounding victory garnered by these people was greater and changed the balance of power in favor of Palestine."

The United States and the Israeli occupation, despite their aggression going on for nearly 50 days, "they did not achieve their declared goal, which is the destruction of Hamas," Amir-Abdollahian said. Neither party made any achievements, and they had to have indirect negotiations with Hamas to reach a ceasefire and release their prisoners.

Hamas and the Palestinian Resistance factions' diplomacy "will invalidate and render obsolete the political plots that were being prepared for Gaza."

Prisoner swap indication of faltering hegemony

Haniyeh, during his talks with the Iranian foreign minister, hailed the leader of the Islamic Revolution, Sayyed Ali Khamenei, and Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi for their unwavering support for the Palestinian cause and people, especially throughout the ongoing war on Gaza.

The Hamas leader saw that the support offered by the Resistance movements in Lebanon, Yemen, Iraq, and Syria to their brothers in Gaza was a "source of pride" that clearly sent a message of unity to the Israeli occupation and the United States.

The United States, despite their initial opposition to a ceasefire, was forced to capitulate before the will of the Palestinian people and that of the entire world, recalling how 120 countries voted in favor of the UN General Assembly resolution on a ceasefire and a deal with Hamas and saying that this highlights that the hegemony of the United States is in decline.

A four-day humanitarian pause went into effect in Gaza at 7 am (GMT+2) Friday after a deal was reached between the Israeli occupation and Hamas on the matter.

The truce will last for four days subject to potential extension. The truce entails the liberation of a number of imprisoned Palestinian women and minors (under the age of 19) from Israeli occupation jails and the admission of relief aid and fuel in the besieged Gaza Strip.

During the 47 days leading up to the ceasefire, 7000 civilians were recorded to be missing, including more than 4700 children and women.

The agreement reached through Qatari and Egyptian mediation efforts was scheduled to go into effect on Thursday. However, Israeli media outlets reported on Wednesday evening that the deal was not finalized and is likely to start on Friday instead.

The limited truce remains under heavy criticism by international organizations, human rights activists, and several countries and officials calling for an immediate ceasefire rather than an insufficient truce.

These calls have been rejected by both the United States and the Israeli occupation entity, stressing that the aggression must continue until all "Tel Aviv's" objectives are fulfilled, something which military experts and diplomats expressed extreme doubts.

The terms include a halt to all hostilities and the release of 50 Israeli captives in exchange for the freedom of 150 Palestinian prisoners.
