A senior official from Hamas has stated that the group is willing to discuss 'freezing or storing' its weapons as part of a ceasefire agreement with Israel. This proposal comes as negotiations enter a more complex phase, with both sides seeking to address longstanding issues. Bassem Naim, a member of Hamas's political bureau, indicated that the group remains committed to its right to resist but is open to laying down arms as part of a process toward establishing a Palestinian state. Naim suggested that a long-term truce could provide the necessary time for comprehensive discussions, though he offered few specifics on how the weapon storage or freezing would be implemented. It remains uncertain whether this offer will satisfy Israel's demands for complete disarmament.
