CAIRO, June 11 (Reuters) - Hamas accepts a UN Security Council ceasefire resolution and is ready to negotiate over the details, senior Hamas official Sami Abu Zuhri told Reuters on Tuesday, adding that it was up to Washington to ensure that Israel abides by it.

Hamas accepts the UN security council resolution in regard to the ceasefire, withdrawal of Israeli troops and swap of hostages for detainees held by Israel, he said.

“The U.S. administration is facing a real test to carry out its commitments in compelling the occupation to immediately end the war in an implementation of the UN Security Council resolution,” Abu Zuhri said.

    Not to sound cynical but I have a hard time believing Netanyahu will accept the agreement. Israel is not generally negotiating in good faith.

      They got their PR win of 4 rescued hostages using big strong tough guy methods instead of boring weak cuck negotiations. They might feel freeer to negotiate now that a few hardliners got to raw raw raw.

        I guess annihilating hundreds of innocent civilians along with two other Israeli hostages is collateral damage for this “victory”?

        I hope you’re right but I doubt it.
