The image you shared is a New York Post headline stating that Hamas rejected the latest cease-fire proposal in Qatar and insisted on IDF withdrawal from Gaza.
Current reporting shows that Hamas’s main sticking point in negotiations has been the demand for a full IDF withdrawal from the Gaza Strip and guarantees toward a permanent ceasefire, while Israel has generally agreed only to temporary halts to fighting and has not accepted demands to withdraw all forces.
Negotiators—primarily the U.S., Qatar, and Egypt—have continued working on potential agreements, but each side has accused the other of being the primary obstacle: Israeli officials blame Hamas for rejecting ceasefire frameworks, while Hamas says Netanyahu’s unwillingness to guarantee a permanent end to the war and full withdrawal is the main barrier.
So, both sides have at different times shown willingness to move forward, but disagreement on the timeline and scope of military withdrawal remains the central reason for the lack of a deal.
