00:00 In Lebanon, Hamas representative denied that the group's fighters raped women during
00:04 the October 7 attack.
00:06 Hamas senior representative Osama Hamdan said during a France conference in Beirut on Tuesday
00:12 that such reports aimed to recover the good treatment that hostages received while being
00:17 held by the group.
00:18 However, when asked if Hamas was holding 17 female soldiers in representative's cells,
00:23 that time had not come yet to speak about the matter.
00:26 And reiterated that the negotiations were supposed to be confined to civilians.
00:30 Previously, he had declared that one of the reasons the ceasefire and hostages release
00:35 negotiations broke down was Israel had to put forward less female soldiers held in Gaza
00:41 in an attempt to get their release in exchange for the release of Palestinian women and children
00:45 from Israeli prison.
00:47 Finally, he reaffirmed Hamas' stance that there would be no negotiation for further
00:51 change before a permanency's fire reached to end a war.
01:01 The Zionist claims and lies that some women were raped come to cover the images of good
01:06 treatment that the Zionist settlers and foreigners received in Gaza that categorically deny these
01:12 claims as these images bothered the Zionist entity that desperately tried to sandnize
01:17 our steadfast people and solid resistance.
01:21 Regarding the exchange, I was clear and said the stance of the movement, as there will
01:26 be no talk about an exchange before ending the aggression on Gaza.
01:30 The mediators exerted efforts, but the side that blocked these efforts is the occupation.
01:36 And today, Netanyahu fired the mercy bullet on these efforts when he met the families
01:41 of the prisoners and told them that their loved ones will not return soon.
