Hamas Ready to Transfer Power in Gaza, Demands Full Rafah Crossing Opening

Hamas has stated it is ready to transfer power in the Gaza Strip, provided the Rafah border crossing opens fully without Israeli obstacles. A spokesperson for the organization said that protocols and files for the complete transfer of governance have been prepared and delegated to committees. However, the transfer is contingent on access for committee members to the Gaza Strip via Rafah, which must operate without restrictions from Israel.
