Hamas official Izzat al-Rishq has blamed Israel for the deaths of six hostages, stating that Israel's refusal to agree to a ceasefire was responsible for the tragedy. The bodies of the hostages were recovered from Gaza, and Hamas claims they were killed in an Israeli airstrike using American weapons. The situation has led to a blame game, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and U.S. President Joe Biden being held responsible by Hamas. Netanyahu, in turn, holds Hamas accountable for the failure to reach a deal. The hostages' deaths have intensified tensions, with both sides accusing each other of obstructing peace efforts.
