Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh blamed Israel for a lack of progress in achieving a cease-fire deal in Gaza, the enclave's ruling Palestinian terror group said in a statement on Saturday.
Haniyeh added that Hamas "will not accept anything less than a complete cessation of the aggression, withdrawal of the occupation army from Gaza, and lifting of the unjust siege".
Haniyeh's demands are unlikely to be heard. This statement highlights the organization's increasing fragility as it loses control over Gaza day by day

Filmmaker Sarah Friedland sparked outrage with her comments at the 81st Venice International Film Festival on Saturday.
Iranian Ambassador to Baghdad Mohammad al-Sadeq said that Iran's retaliation following the death of Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh was imminent.
The head of the CIA, who is also the chief U.S. negotiator for an end to the Gaza war and release of hostages held by Hamas, said a more detailed ceasefire proposal would be made in the next several days.
