U.S. President Joe Biden referred to the talks he had Sunday with the leaders of Egypt and Qatar about the negotiations for the hostage deal, and wrote in a post on the X social media platform that he told them that "Hamas is now the only obstacle to an immediate cease-fire and relief for civilians in Gaza."

Hamas is responsible for initiating the conflict and for the tragedy that has befallen the Palestinian civilian population.
