Hamas stands by demand for end to Gaza war under hostage deal, as...

Hamas stands by its demand that Israel fully end its assault on Gaza under any deal to release hostages, and criticizes President-elect Donald Trump's statement that there would be 'hell to pay' unless the hostages are freed by his inauguration. Both sides accuse each other of blocking a deal by adhering to conditions that have sabotaged previous peace efforts. Hamas says it will only free its remaining hostages if Israel agrees to end the war and withdraw all its troops from Gaza, while Israel says it will not end the war until Hamas is dismantled and all hostages are free. Israeli strikes kill 10 Palestinians in Gaza, and Gaza hospitals appeal for fuel. Israel claims that Hamas militants operated from inside a hospital, but Hamas and the health ministry deny this.
