W460

Hamas seeks an agreement to end the Gaza war that would include the one-time release of all remaining hostages and a five-year truce, an official from the Palestinian group said Saturday.

"Hamas is ready for an exchange of prisoners in a single batch and a truce for five years," the official told AFP on condition of anonymity, as a delegation from his group was set to meet mediators in Cairo later in the day.

When the mediators see it in writing on official letter-head then perhaps they would pass it on to the other side. Whilst these comments are made by an anonymous source, no one is going to take any notice of it.
