Top Hamas official in Lebanon says Palestinian terror group will back Israel-Hezbollah truce

A top Hamas official in Lebanon says the Palestinian terror group will support a ceasefire between its Lebanese ally Hezbollah and Israel, despite Hezbollah’s previous promises to stop the fighting in Lebanon only if the war in Gaza ends.

“Any announcement of a ceasefire is welcome. Hezbollah has stood by our people and made significant sacrifices,” Osama Hamdan tells the Lebanese broadcaster Al Mayadeen, which is seen as politically allied with Hezbollah.

There has been no official comment on a potential Lebanon ceasefire from Gaza-based leaders of either Hamas or the smaller terror group Palestinian Islamic Jihad. Hamdan is a member of Hamas’s political wing.
