Hamas leader issues demands in ‘all or nothing’ hostage deal with Israel

Hamas’s leader has said he will only agree to a new truce deal if it guarantees the release of all Palestinian prisoners currently being held in Israeli jails, according to reports.

Al Arabi Al Jadidi, a pro-Qatari newspaper, on Thursday quoted an unnamed Egyptian official saying the “leadership of Hamas” had rejected Israel’s offer of a temporary truce in exchange for the release of several dozen Israeli hostages.
