Senior Hamas Leader Rejects Disarmament Ultimatum
Mahmoud Mardawi, a senior Hamas leader, rejected an ultimatum for disarmament issued by mediating countries during a recent interview with Al Jazeera.
Mardawi stated that Hamas had not received any official notice of a deadline for disarming the resistance in the Gaza Strip. He emphasized that the group remains committed to its armed struggle until a fully independent Palestinian state is established and the occupation ends. "The struggle is not merely about weapons; it’s a fight for our rights and our land," Mardawi declared.
He also highlighted what he described as repeated violations of the ceasefire by the Israeli regime in both Gaza and the West Bank. Mardawi claimed these actions indicate a broader plan to forcibly displace Palestinian residents.
Mardawi's statements come amid escalating tensions in the region, raising questions about the future of peace negotiations.
