GAZA, April 14, 2024 (UNI/Xinhua) -- A boy clears debris after Israeli strikes at the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza Strip, April 13, 2024. The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) announced Saturday it has responded to mediators in Egypt and Qatar over the proposed ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and reaffirmed its demands. Hamas meanwhile reiterated its demands for a permanent ceasefire, the withdrawal of all Israeli forces from the Gaza Strip, the return of displaced Palestinians to their homes, the facilitation of relief supplies and aid into Gaza, and the start of reconstruction efforts in the coastal enclave. Later, the Israeli Prime Minister's office said Israel rejected the "unfounded demands" of Hamas for an end to the Gaza war and a complete withdrawal of its troops from the enclave. UNI PHOTO-AK6F
