Prime Minister: The next stage of negotiations can proceed, but Hamas must lay down its weapons

On March 30th, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu stated at a government meeting that Israel is ready for the next stage of negotiations on the Gaza ceasefire agreement, but the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) must lay down its weapons. Netanyahu said Hamas claimed that Israel is not ready to enter the second phase of negotiations for a ceasefire agreement, “that’s not true, we’re ready. However, to achieve negotiations, Hamas needs to lay down its weapons, Israel will allow its leaders to leave the Gaza Strip, Israel will be responsible for the overall security of the Gaza Strip, and facilitate the implementation of the “voluntary relocation” plan proposed by US President Trump. On this basis, Israel is ready to engage in the second phase of negotiations at any time.
