Hamas politburo member Mohammed Nazzal stated that the terrorist organization intends to maintain security control in Gaza during an interim period and cannot commit to disarming.
In an interview with the Reuters news agency from Doha, Nazzal said Hamas is prepared for a ceasefire of up to five years to allow for reconstruction, but insisted that future guarantees must offer Palestinian Arabs “horizons and hope” for statehood.
He defended Hamas’s recent public executions in Gaza, claiming those killed were criminals and that “exceptional measures” are sometimes necessary during wartime.
The remarks come days after the first phase of the ceasefire agreement was implemented, with Hamas releasing all living hostages but only nine of the 28 bodies of deceased hostages. Nazzal claimed that Hamas has no interest in keeping the remaining bodies and cited technical difficulties in recovering them. He added that international parties such as Turkey and the US may assist in locating the bodies.
Asked about disarmament, Nazzal said, “I can’t answer with a yes or no. Frankly, it depends on the nature of the project. The disarmament project you’re talking about, what does it mean? To whom will the weapons be handed over?”

Time to hand out free cell phones to all Hamas.
This is an eternal war that started 14 centuries ago. Of course they won’t disarm. That’s like asking the devil to lay down his arms and stop harassing the human race.
Hamas and the others will only be destroyed on the Last Day when Christ returns in glory. All we can hope for until then is some degree of containment.
Guaranteed, no bombs, or your money back;-}
Yep, that wasn’t hard to see coming...
Wouldn't it be great to create mock pagers and cell phones, and then drop thousands of them via small parachutes on what's left of the Gazan Islamofascistnazis.
We could watch where they scurry and flee, and then take care of business.
Never misses an opportunity to miss an opportunity.
Started wayyu before that. The rowdy sons of Ishmael.
They’re also shooting people to cheering crowds. The heroes of the Left.
Yes, I suppose you’re right.
Come, Lord Jesus, and put an end to this.
The IDF might have to restart military operations.
IDF was probably expecting as much and has a plan in place.
If their mouths are open... They are lying through their teeth. HAMAS is full of disgusting sub-humans who need to be eliminated... The Israeli’s and Americans should hire disgruntled Pali-squatters, give them some heavy duty weapons and let them have at them... No more Hamas.
Note that UAE, Saudi and Bahrain are reported to be pressuring Trump to halt his leniency toward Hamas.
Every gazzard IS ham-ass.
It’s finally time to deploy the neutron bomb.
Not a “solution.” Do Taichi for a month and you’ll have big biceps and six-pack abs to impress the girls. It says so on You Tube, so it must be true. No need to advocate for the use of nuclear weapons (Israel has those) or “final solutions”. Eww.
You cannot eliminate evil in the world, but you can contain it. We stopped the WW II Nazis, by killing everyone that did not disarm and by eliminating their food supply.
Do the same to the Hamas.
Contain them and starve them. Those that come out un armed get fed. Keep in mind this is a religious war, Moslem against ALL non-Moslem. If you are unwilling to deal with that you will never be safe.
Israel and the US are watching you hamass and making their target list and checking it twice
A 1,400 year old religious war, and as long as there are Muslims in the world there will be no peace. Hamas specifically is sworn to the eradication of all Jews and Christians worldwide. Their ultimately is no negotiation with them. Until every last one of them are dead there will be no peace.
As you said though, contain them and starve them. That’s the best we can hope for.
