"Hamas tried to evacuate its people using ambulances through the Rafah crossing, " syas Senior American official
In a press briefing, the official said that the Hamas ploy led to a delay in evacuating the wounded and foreign citizens from the Gaza Strip to Egypt.
A senior official in the White House held a press briefing on the night between Friday and Saturday (Israel time) and said that Hamas tried to smuggle its people into Egypt, which delayed the removal of the foreign citizens and the wounded Palestinians out of Gaza.
According to the source, a third of the group that had to go to Egypt were Hamas terrorists, contrary to the agreement, and "this was not acceptable to the Egyptians, nor to us Americans, nor to Israel," according to him.
According to the source, there is an "intensive process" for the release of the hostages in Gaza and according to him it is a "difficult, complex and time-consuming" process.
The official added that "an active process is taking place in various directions, including indirect involvement to find a framework that will lead to the removal of the abductees from Gaza."
By referring to the "framework", the official referred to the release of Nathalie and Yehudit Ra'anan on October 20 and the intention to check whether it would be possible to see similar actions, but emphasized that the release of all the abductees would be "very difficult".
The senior official also said that a significant lull in the fighting would be required to help free the abductees and added that a "very serious and active" dialogue is taking place on the issue, but they have not yet reached an agreement on the issue.
In response to the speech by the Secretary General of Hezbollah, the official said that he does not intend to comment on the content of the speech, but that the US continues to be in regular contact with the Lebanese government so that the war does not spread to Lebanon, which would be a complete disaster for the country.
