According to the Al-Arabiya network, Mohammad Ashtiya said that Ramallah demands an immediate humanitarian ceasefire and the sending of aid to the Gaza Strip. The Palestinian Authority is involved in the release and exchange of prisoners between Hamas and Israel. At the same time, Abu Obeida, a spokesman for the Ezzedine al-Qassam Battalions, the military wing of Hamas, said in a video message that he would release all Israeli prisoners only if the Zionist regime released all Palestinian prisoners. The Reuters news agency reported, citing an informed source, that even in the current situation, when the Zionist regime has intensified attacks on Palestinian positions in Gaza, negotiations on a prisoner exchange mediated by Qatar between Tel Aviv and Hamas are aimed at de-escalating tensions in the Gaza Strip. On October 7, Palestinian resistance forces launched a surprise operation called Al-Aqsa Storm from Gaza against Tel Aviv positions, and the Zionist regime bombed all crossings, especially mosques and medical centers in the Gaza Strip to avenge its defeat and the end of resistance operations. The Palestinian Health Ministry said the number of martyrs in the region had increased to more than 8,000.
