The Islamic Resistance Movement “Hamas”, announced it would delay the release of Israeli prisoners scheduled for February 15 following Israeli occupation’s failure to uphold its commitments under the ceasefire agreement.
“Over the past three weeks, the resistance leadership has monitored the enemy’s violations and failure to fulfill its obligations under the agreement; including the delay in allowing the return of the displaced to the northern Gaza Strip, targeting them with direct shelling and gunfire in various areas across Gaza, and denying relief supplies of all kinds to enter as agreed, while the resistance has implemented all its obligations,” Abu Obeida, Al-Qassam Brigades’ spokesman said in a statement on Monday evening .
He added, “Therefore, the release of the Zionist prisoners next Saturday, Feb. 15, 2025, will be postponed until further notice, and until the occupation commits to and provides compensation for the entitlements of the past weeks retroactively.”
“We reaffirm our commitment to the terms of the agreement, as long as the occupation remains committed to them,” he stressed.
