Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu speaks during a press conference at the Government Press office in Jerusalem, September 4, 2024
HAMAS today blamed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for the failure of ceasefire talks and accused the Israeli leader of wanting to prolong the war on Palestinians in Gaza.
This came a day after Mr Netanyahu insisted that Israel must keep open-ended control of Gaza’s border with Egypt, digging in on his stance on an issue that has threatened to derail ceasefire efforts.
