DHAKA: Hamas, the Islamist movement in de facto control of Gaza, vowed Saturday there would be no concessions to Israel.
The group defies international attempts to broker a new ceasefire after fighting resumed.
‘There will be no going back, the resistance will continue,’ Hamas spokesman Fawzy Barhum said in a statement, reports The Straits Times.
‘The occupier’s intransigence will get it nowhere and we will make no concessions on the demands of our people.’
