Nour Odeh, a political analyst and columnist, has told Al Jazeera from Ramallah in the occupied West Bank that Hamas “will have to” cooperate to make the ceasefire deal work.

“Egypt and Qatar, who have working around the clock for the past month to get to a ceasefire, to get to an agreement that would end the war – and that would require some sort of political framework … they need Hamas’ cooperation for this deal and they have been making the point that without it it would be very difficult to find a pathway towards the end of the war,” she said.

“Hamas is also under a lot of pressure domestically. They need to be able to say that this six-week ceasefire will make a difference, that there would be enough aid flowing in, that people would be able to return to the north and not starve to death, because the humanitarian aid is not allowed,” Odeh added.

“Ultimately, it will be very difficult for Hamas to say no to Qatar and Egypt at this point.”

She also said “the missing part” for the ceasefire deal is the US. “The Biden administration is resorting to extreme measures like dropping aid because it cannot bring its ally and the country that depends on it for this war to open more border crossings to allow food into the Strip to save lives of people that Israel has been starving for five months,” Odeh added.
