"Hamas" has not received US President Donald Trump's plan for a ceasefire in Gaza, the Palestinian group that runs the enclave said on Monday, as Israeli forces expand their attack on Gaza City, Reuters reported, quoted by BTA.
The comments came after the Israeli newspaper "Hamas" had agreed in principle to release all Israeli hostages it is holding in exchange for hundreds of Palestinian prisoners and a gradual withdrawal of Israeli troops under Trump's plan.
The proposal also includes the end of Hamas rule in Gaza, as well as Israel's agreement not to annex the territory or expel the Palestinians who live there, Haaretz reported.
"No plan has been presented to "Hamas"," a Hamas official told Reuters, speaking on condition of anonymity.
In comments to reporters on Friday, in which he said "it looks like we have a deal on Gaza", Trump did not elaborate on its content or give a timetable. Israel has yet to respond publicly to Trump's comments.
On Monday, Trump will meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who heads a far-right ruling coalition that opposes ending the war in Gaza, while "Hamas" not be destroyed, Reuters reported.
Trump also said on Friday that negotiations on Gaza with Middle Eastern countries were intense and would continue as long as necessary.
His special envoy, Steve Witkoff, said the US president had presented proposals to leaders of several Muslim-majority countries this week that included a 21-point Middle East peace plan.
Meanwhile, fighting continued in Gaza, with the Israeli military saying its jets had hit 120 targets in the strip overnight as troops advanced deeper into Gaza City. The Palestinian Health Ministry said 74 people had died in Gaza in the past 24 hours.
Thousands of people gathered in central Berlin yesterday to protest against Israel's military actions in the Gaza Strip, with organizers predicting tens of thousands more would join the protest throughout the day, DPA reported, quoted by BTA.
The "All Eyes on Gaza" demonstration began in front of Berlin City Hall and moved towards the Victory Column, a monument in the German capital's Tiergarten park.
The crowd chanted "Freedom for Palestine" and "Long Live International Solidarity," while banners read "Gaza - Stop the Massacre," "Never Again - For All" and "Freedom for Palestine".
The protest was organized by a coalition of about 50 groups, including pro-Palestinian organizations, the "Left" party, Medico International and "Amnesty International". Their demands include an immediate halt to German arms exports to Israel, unhindered humanitarian access to Gaza and EU sanctions against Israel.
Berlin police said about 1,800 officers were deployed across the city. Organizers registered 30,000 participants but expected more, noting that the capital's largest demonstration in support of Gaza so far drew about 50,000 people.
Organizers accuse Israel of genocide against Palestinians – an accusation that Israel strongly denies.
In Düsseldorf, several thousand people also gathered for a demonstration to draw attention to the plight of Palestinians in the war-torn Gaza Strip, DPA reported.
Police in the German city deployed a large contingent of officers, but a spokesman said in the afternoon that the event had passed peacefully.
The march route was from the main train station through the city center. Some of the participants arrived in Düsseldorf by bus from other parts of Germany.
The demonstration, organized by an action alliance, was held under the motto: "We will not forget Gaza - freedom for Palestine and all oppressed peoples".
