HAMAS WANTS A PERMANENT CEASEFIRE
Speaking to the Israeli press, an Arab diplomat stated that the nature of the ceasefire agreement is the main point of contention in the talks, noting that Hamas is demanding a permanent end to the hostilities, while Israel wants a temporary pause during which some hostages would be released, followed by a resumption of fighting to complete the elimination of the terrorist organization's military and governing capabilities.
