🔴Palestinian Government in the Gaza Strip: The Zionist Regime Exploits Negotiations to Buy Time and Continue Genocide

The Government Media Office of the Palestinian State in the Gaza Strip: The recent stances of the Prime Minister of the Zionist regime constitute a "clear regression from the negotiation process" and a "deliberate undermining of efforts to consolidate a ceasefire."

🔹 By explicitly rejecting the "15-point document"—which was the product of extensive consultations with mediators and Palestinian parties—Netanyahu has introduced unworkable conditions and demands, foremost among which is his opposition to any withdrawal of the occupying army from the Gaza Strip.

🔹 The Zionist regime has once again demonstrated that it is not committed to agreements or diplomatic pathways, and by fabricating artificial crises, it seeks to revert conditions to square one and pave the way for the continuation of its aggressions.
