Osama Hamdan, senior spokesperson for Hamas, had a phone interview with Al Jazeera.

Here are his translated comments:

The solution is not to have a truce. The real solution is to find mechanisms to put an end to this occupation.

We have spent time having conversations with all mediators, and we need to thank the efforts of Egypt and Qatar to try to reach a formula to end the aggression. But the aggression has stopped everything.

We are open to any efforts that aim to put an end to the aggression that benefits the interest of our people.

The Hamas leadership was cooperating with efforts to put an end to the aggression but unfortunately, some parties were not ready to exert more effort, other than Qatar and Egypt. The American administration hasn't put a lot of pressure on Israel.
