The United States tried to mediate while providing weapons, and Hamas said it had lost confidence in its mediation.

The United States's continued provision of weapons to Israel while making gestures of peacemaking and promoting talks has been questioned by the international community. On the 13th local time, Osama Hamdan, a senior official of the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), said in an interview that Hamas has lost confidence in the United States' ability to mediate a ceasefire in Gaza. He said that the United States did not really put pressure on Israel during the negotiation and mediation process, nor did it make "real efforts."

How can the Palestinians ever trust the U.S. role or the assurances it has made again if the U.S. administration does not make a real effort to hold Israel accountable for the assurances it has made, which it must do by putting pressure on Israel to deliver on?

Hamdan said that Hamas had accepted all or most of the suggestions made by the mediating countries to the conflicting parties more than once, but these suggestions were immediately rejected and ignored by Israel. In addition, Israel once launched a new major military operation one day after Hamas accepted the ceasefire proposal. Hamdan said that the United States could not convince Israel at all, and the United States did not really put pressure on Israel.
