“We will deal positively with any initiative aimed at ending the offensive,” (Haniyeh) said.
Haniyeh’s speech, which ended with a prayer, was seen by some Palestinians as an admission of defeat. A Fatah official in Ramallah said the speech reflected Hamas’s growing predicament.

“This speech shows that Hamas has been defeated,” he said. “Haniyeh has actually raised the white flag.”

The official pointed out that the speech was also an indication of the growing rift between the Hamas leadership in the Gaza Strip and the one in Damascus and Beirut.
