Israel has made 'important' compromises in cease-fire efforts and it is now up to Hamas - Blinken
I met earlier today with Prime Minister Netanyahu and we talked about, of course, the hostage deal that’s that’s on the table that would produce an immediate ceasefire, get the hostages home, alleviate suffering of Palestinian people in Gaza and also give us something to build on for the future, to get to durable peace and security. Israel has made very important compromises in the proposal that that that’s on the table. Demonstrating its desire and willingness to get this agreement and get it done. Now, as we’ve been saying, it’s on Hamas, Hamas has to decide whether it will take this deal and actually advance the situation for the people that it purports to care about in Gaza. There is no time for delay. There’s no time for further haggling. The deal is there, they should take it.
