A senior Hamas official told the Qatari newspaper "Al-Araby Al-Jadeed" that there is no truth to the claims that leader Mohammed Sinwar is being harsh and showing no flexibility, and that he refuses to provide a full list of the living hostages. According to the official, Hamas provided a list of those it was able to, after contacting the other terror organizations responsible for holding them. He added: "Hamas held talks with the other factions that are holding the hostages, but it is impossible to contact all the organizations because of the situation in the Gaza Strip. Hamas confirmed in the negotiations that it is willing to provide a full list of the living hostages after the situation stabilizes, and after the cease-fire."
