中新网8月19日电 综合报道,当地时间18日,巴勒斯坦伊斯兰抵抗运动(哈马斯)拒绝了美国提出的加沙停火协议提案,并指责以色列总理内塔尼亚胡在谈判中设置新障碍,以及美方偏袒以色列。
据报道,此次加沙停火谈判的主要症结之一,是内塔尼亚胡要求以色列国防军继续部署在加沙与埃及边境的“费城走廊”,以防止哈马斯向加沙走私武器并重建军队。这一要求并未在之前的协议案中提出,哈马斯明确表示拒绝,并坚决反对以色列军队在该地区的军事存在。
此外,哈马斯还反对最新停火协议提案中不包括“永久停火”或“以色列从加沙地带全面撤军”的条款。该协议提案还支持内塔尼亚胡对“内扎里姆走廊”控制权的要求,不允许多尔达平民自由流动。
哈马斯进一步声称,美国支持的最新停火提案与以色列的要求一致,并指责美方此举实际上是偏袒以色列。
《以色列时报》透露,内塔尼亚胡在18日向以色列内阁成员表示,他对达成停火协议感到悲观,尤其是考虑到以色列一直在与调解国家进行有效谈判,而不是与哈马斯进行谈判。
本轮加沙停火谈判15日在卡塔尔多哈重启,在卡塔尔、美国和埃及的斡旋下,以色列派出高级别代表团参加,但哈马斯全程缺席,谈判在16日草草收场。
在哈马斯拒绝最新停火提案后,美国国务卿布林肯计划于当地时间19日访问以色列,并将与内塔尼亚胡会面。随后,布林肯将飞往埃及首都开罗。美方透露,计划在本周晚些时候举行第二次停火谈判会议,并希望在本周内达成协议。
有分析称,尽管美国对以色列和哈马斯之间巨大的分歧心知肚明,但由于大选临近,拜登政府急需通过加沙停火为民主党的选情造势,这也透露出近期美方不遗余力想尽力促成加沙停火的政治考量。

News Title: “Hamas Rejects U.S. Proposal for Gaza Ceasefire, U.S. Efforts to Broker Deal Raise Questions”
Keywords: Hamas, Ceasefire, United States
News Content:
August 19, 2023 – Xinhua News Agency reported that Hamas, the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement, has rejected a ceasefire proposal put forward by the United States, accusing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of setting new obstacles in negotiations and accusing the U.S. of siding with Israel.
The main sticking point in the current negotiations over a ceasefire in Gaza is Netanyahu’s demand that the Israeli Defense Forces continue to be deployed along the Philadelphi Corridor, the border between Gaza and Egypt, to prevent Hamas from smuggling weapons into Gaza and rebuilding its military. This demand was not previously included in the agreement, and Hamas clearly stated its refusal, strongly opposing the military presence of Israeli forces in the area.
Additionally, Hamas opposed the latest ceasefire proposal for not including terms of a “permanent ceasefire” or “Israel’s full withdrawal from the Gaza Strip.” The proposal also supports Netanyahu’s demand for control over the Netafim Corridor, restricting the free movement of Gazan civilians.
Hamas further claimed that the U.S.-backed ceasefire proposal aligns with Israel’s demands and accused the U.S. of actually siding with Israel.
The “Israeli Times” reported that Netanyahu told members of the Israeli Cabinet on August 18 that he was pessimistic about reaching a ceasefire, especially given that Israel has been effectively negotiating with mediating countries rather than with Hamas itself.
The round of negotiations on a Gaza ceasefire was restarted on August 15 in Doha, Qatar, with mediation from Israel, the U.S., and Egypt. Israel sent a high-level delegation to the talks, but Hamas was absent throughout and the negotiations ended hastily on August 16.
Following Hamas’ rejection of the latest ceasefire proposal, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken plans to visit Israel on August 19 and meet with Netanyahu. He will then travel to Cairo, the capital of Egypt. The U.S. has revealed plans to hold a second ceasefire negotiations meeting later in the week and aims to reach an agreement within the week.
Analysts have noted that while the U.S. is aware of the vast differences between Israel and Hamas, the Biden administration is under pressure to use the Gaza ceasefire to bolster the Democratic Party’s electoral prospects as the U.S. approaches the midterm elections. This suggests that the U.S. is making considerable efforts to broker a ceasefire in Gaza politically.
