Israeli official says Gaza cease-fire proposal announced by Biden is 'victory to Hamas'
3-phase proposal laid out by US president includes full cease-fire, Israeli withdrawal from populated areas in Gaza, exchange of prisoners
By Ahmed Asmar
ANKARA (AA) - An Israeli official on Friday said a cease-fire proposal in Gaza that US President Joe Biden said was greenlighted by Tel Aviv amounted to a "victory to Hamas."
According to Israeli private broadcaster Channel 12, the official, whose name was withheld in the report, said Biden lacks an understanding of the reality of the conflict.
In a speech earlier on Friday, Biden had laid out the latest proposal for a deal to release Israeli hostages held in Gaza, which he said was greenlighted by Tel Aviv, urging Palestinian group Hamas to accept it.
The proposal extends over three phases, the first spanning six weeks and including a full cease-fire, the withdrawal of Israeli forces from populated areas in Gaza, and the exchange of prisoners.
