According to the organization's statement, understandings were reached "to contain the escalation and stop Israeli aggression.".
The announcement also stated that after recent talks held by the Qatari envoy to the region, Muhammad al-Amadi, the parties reached understandings, within the framework of which several projects intended to serve the residents of Gaza will be announced later, particularly in the shadow of the coronavirus, and that the situation will return to normal before the escalation.
According to Hamas, they agreed to a truce due to the need for humanitarian equipment in light of the outbreak of the coronavirus in the Gaza Strip and the fear of rapid infection that would lead to collapse.
