They talk about partial transactions to release some concluded in exchange for a temporary end of fire, and then about the transition to open negotiations without any obligations to end the war, ”said to the bun, adding that Hamas would not release more prisoners until he sees the complete conclusion of the Israeli forces from the gas sector and will hear a clear statement about the termination of the war.
