Hamas has said that Israel has failed to achieve its goals in Gaza.
This was contained in its statement formally accepting the terms of the ceasefire deal.
In a statement later on Wednesday, the group’s acting chief, Khalil al-Hayya, said that “Israel failed to achieve its goals in Gaza.”
“On behalf of all the victims, every drop of blood spilt and every tear of pain and oppression, we say: We will not forget, and we will not forgive,” he added.
DAILY POST reports that Hamas and Israel have agreed to a ceasefire deal to pause the war in Gaza.
The deal is designed to broker an end to the brutal 15-month conflict, the mediator Qatar has said.
The agreement is set to be officially accepted by Israel after a cabinet meeting on Thursday.
The announcement was made on Wednesday night by Qatar’s prime minister, Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani.
The deal was reached after weeks of negotiations in the Qatari capital, Doha.
