Exiled Hamas chief Khalil Al-Hayya declared Thursday the war in Gaza has ended after the terror group received assurances from the US and other nations about the impending cease-fire deal brokered by President Trump.
Al-Hayya delivered the long-awaited message as the Israel and the Palestinian terror group signed an agreement to stop the fighting and allow the remaining Israeli hostages to be released.
The Hamas leader said his side has received guarantees from the US, Arab mediators and Turkey that the bloody war has come to a permanent conclusion.
He also said along with the end of the war, the deal will pave the way to reopen a key crossing with Egypt and see all jailed Palestinian women and children released by Israeli authorities.
The two-year conflict in Gaza was sparked after Hamas’ depraved attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023 that killed 1,200 people and led to another 250 being kidnapped back to the Palestinian enclave.
About 20 living hostages and about another 28 bodies of slain captives remain in Gaza.
