Hamas, we will free hostages if Israel ends the war - Last hour. The day after the Paris summit between Qatar, Egypt and the United States, Hamas dampens expectations for a lasting truce in Gaza.
"The success of the Paris meeting depends on Israel agreeing to end the global aggression on the Gaza Strip," said Sami Abu Zuhri, a senior Hamas official. The group also says that a full release of the hostages also requires Israel to release all thousands of Palestinians held in Israeli prisons.
