A call for an immediate ceasefire:
According to Mohammad Shtayyeh, it is imperative to establish an immediate ceasefire in Gaza to end the suffering of the Palestinians.

Faced with Israel’s offensive aimed at eliminating Hamas, Mohammad Shtayyeh affirmed that this attempt will not succeed.

According to him, the solution lies in a comprehensive political approach that takes into account the aspirations and rights of all Palestinians, including those of Hamas.

The Palestinian Prime Minister called for a comprehensive solution to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. He expressed his wish to see the international community intervene to put pressure on Israel to end the occupation and allow the creation of an independent Palestinian state.

Conclusion :
Mohammad Shtayyeh’s call for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and a comprehensive solution to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict reflects the Palestinians’ desire to end the suffering and aspire to lasting peace. His message highlights the importance of a political rather than a military approach to achieving a just and equitable resolution to the conflict.
