On May 12th, the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) issued a statement on the evening of the 11th local time, stating that it will release the detained individual Aidan Alexander, who holds dual citizenship of the United States and Israel. The statement said that as part of the efforts made by the Gaza Strip ceasefire agreement mediators to achieve a ceasefire, Hamas has been in contact with the US government in the past few days and has expressed a “strong positive attitude”. The release of Aidan Alexander will be part of efforts to achieve a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, open border crossings, and allow aid supplies to reach the people of the Gaza Strip. The statement said that Hamas is ready to immediately begin intensive negotiations and make every effort to reach a final agreement to stop the war, exchange detainees, and have an independent and professional committee manage the Gaza Strip to ensure that the area remains calm and stable for many years to come, while rebuilding and ending the blockade.
