Blinken: We are pressing for a ceasefire and the ball is in Hamas’ court. US minister's statements came after Abu Ubaida, spokesman for the Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Hamas movement, confirmed that the highest priority for completing the prisoner exchange is full commitment to stopping the aggression against Gaza.
Sources told Al Jazeera yesterday, Thursday, that the negotiations that recently took place in Cairo ended without reaching an agreement, and that the mediators tried to bridge the gap between Hamas and Israel.
