Gaza/Internet/Hyderabad, Jan 26 (Hydnow): Hamas has announced that the group is ready to observe a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip if the International Court of Justice (ICJ) issues a ruling calling for it as long as Israel reciprocates.

If the court issues a ceasefire decision, the Hamas movement will adhere to the ceasefire as long as Israel adheres to that, “the group said in a statement. In addition, it said that Hamas will release the Israeli prisoners detained by it if Israel releases the Palestinian prisoners detained by it,” noting that Israel must “end the siege that has been ongoing for 18 years in Gaza and allow the entry of all necessary aid for relief and reconstruction, media reported.

The ICJ is set to deliver a ruling on South Africa’s case against Israel on Friday in Hague. It will also rule on South Africa’s demand for the court’s urgent intervention to stop Israel’s military operation in Gaza.
