Mahmoud Mardawi, a senior official in the Islamic Resistance Movement, 
Hamas, denied on Sunday the fabricated claims circulated by /Al Hadath 
TV/ and several other media outlets regarding the ceasefire negotiation 
process

and the movement's position on disarmament.

Mardawi asserted that what was published is "completely unfounded and 
aims to distort 
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/hamas--israeli-bombing-of-gaza-exposes-netanyahu-s-lies?utm_source=mango-searchx&utm_medium=title_and_relatives&utm_campaign=%23Hamas> 
the stance and confuse public opinion," calling on the media to ensure 
accuracy and credibility in how they handle statements and to avoid 
falling for rumors and false anonymous sources. He emphasized the 
importance of obtaining information and statements from the Hamas 
movement's official channels.

Earlier today, numerous media outlets had claimed that a Hamas leader 
had informed them 
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/palestinian-resistance-factions-welcome-hamas-response-to-tr?utm_source=mango-searchx&utm_medium=title_and_relatives&utm_campaign=%23Hamas> 
of the movement's agreement to hand over its weapons to a 
Palestinian-Egyptian body under international supervision.

The movement's official response to Trump's proposal for a ceasefire 
agreed to the handover of all Israeli captives, as per the exchange 
framework outlined in the proposal, but it conditioned "other issues, 
concerning the future of the Gaza Strip and the inalienable rights of 
the Palestinian people, on a unified national position and in accordance 
with relevant international laws and resolutions."


    'Israel' agreed to initial withdrawal line, pending Hamas stance: Trump

This closely follows an announcement by US President Donald Trump 
earlier on Sunday, declaring that"Israel" agreed to an initial 
withdrawal 
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/trump---israel--agrees-to-initial-withdrawal-pending-hamas-r>line 
in Gaza as part of ongoing negotiations toward a ceasefire in the territory.

In a Truth Social post, Trump claimed that the proposal, which had been 
shared with Hamas and is awaiting confirmation for an immediate 
ceasefire and a concurrent captive and prisoner exchange, would also 
establish the conditions for the subsequent phase of withdrawal, moving 
the war toward the conclusion of what he termed "this 3,000-year 
catastrophe."

US President Donald Trumprevealed on Saturday 
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/trump-to-netanyahu--gaza-deal-is--your-chance-for-victory>that 
negotiations for a ceasefire and captives' release in the Gaza Strip are 
nearing completion. In a statement to/Axios/, Trump said he expects the 
deal to be finalized "within days" and described his direct involvement 
in pushing all parties, most notably "Israel" and Hamas, toward an 
agreement.

"I said, 'Bibi, this is your chance for victory.' He was fine with it. 
He has to be," Trump stated, referencing his conversation with Israeli 
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. "With me, you got to be fine."

"Israel's" genocidal war on Gaza

now nearing its two-year mark, may be heading toward a resolution, with 
Trump's remarks indicating the most significant diplomatic breakthrough 
in months.
