Tehran, IRNA – A senior Palestinian resistance official says the United States is still supporting the Israeli regime's genocide in the besieged Gaza Strip.

In an interview with Al Araby TV channel on Sunday, Osama Hamdan said the United States’ stances provide the Israeli regime with the opportunity to keep on committing crimes in the Gaza Strip.

The top Hamas official further said that the regime does not want to reach a ceasefire with the Palestinians and, therefore, continues "killing our people by the use of siege and hunger."

Pointing to the truce talks, he said that Hamas officials received a letter of invitation to visit Cairo and that he was surprised to see reports of dispatching a Hamas delegation to submit the movement’s response.

The new round of negotiations is scheduled to be held in Cairo, Egypt, on Sunday and Monday, he said, adding that Hamas is keen on achieving a result that satisfies the Palestinian nation.

Following a retaliatory attack by the Palestinian resistance movement on the Israeli regime on October 7, the regime commenced an all-out war on Gaza that has so far left over 30,000 martyrs and over 7,000 injured, mostly women and children.
