The Palestinian group says it has replied to US special envoy Steve Witkoff’s latest proposal through mediators, Al Jazeera reports.

“This proposal aims to achieve a permanent ceasefire, a comprehensive withdrawal from the Gaza Strip, and ensure the flow of aid to our people,” a Hamas statement on Telegram said.

“As part of this agreement, 10 living Israeli prisoners held by the resistance will be released and 18 bodies will be returned, in exchange for an agreed-upon number of Palestinian prisoners.”
