On the 14th local time, Qatar Al Jazeera TV quoted a senior Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement official as saying that the organization learned about the latest cease-fire proposal from Egypt, which included: the parties to the conflict reached a temporary cease-fire for 45 days; Hamas released half of the Israeli detainees in the first week of the cease-fire in exchange for Israel's permission to enter Gaza; and before the cease-fire ends, Hamas needs to release all surviving and dead Israeli detainees. Furthermore, the proposal includes clear requirements for the disarming of Hamas. The Hamas official said that the Egyptian side told Hamas that it would be difficult to reach a cease-fire agreement without negotiations on disarming it. In response, the official said that the key to reaching any cease-fire agreement should be to stop Israel's attacks on the Gaza Strip and demand that Israel withdraw its troops from the Gaza Strip rather than discuss disarming Hamas. Discussing disarmament is unacceptable to Hamas. Staying armed is a basic right of people, and there is no room for discussion.
