The political head of Hamas accuses Israel of impeding the negotiations for a truce before Ramadan.
Head of Hamas's political bureau, Ismail Haniyeh, said Israel is to blame for the ceasefire agreement's failure to be reached before Ramadan, stating, "We don't want an agreement that doesn't end the war on Gaza." Israeli troops have barred the Al-Aqsa mosque compound's entrance in occupied East Jerusalem. A few worshipers were outdoors praying. Israeli soldiers beat other people who tried to enter the complex at the gate. The third-holiest place on the Muslim calendar is the Al-Aqsa complex. Israeli officials have restricted entry since October 7.
