Hamas says Israel failed to achieve any of its goals in Gaza on war anniversary

On the second anniversary of the war in Gaza, Hamas has declared that Israel has failed to achieve any of its objectives. A senior Hamas official stated that Israel has not succeeded in its goal of expelling Palestinians and is now facing unprecedented international isolation. Meanwhile, Hamas negotiators are in Egypt for indirect talks, aiming for a complete ceasefire, the withdrawal of the Israeli army, and the return of displaced residents. These diplomatic efforts are occurring alongside discussions of a controversial peace plan proposed by former US President Donald Trump, even as Israeli military operations continue in the besieged enclave.
