GAZA, July 25 (Xinhua) — Hamas reiterated its commitment to ongoing ceasefire talks early Friday after U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff criticized the movement's intentions in the talks.

Hamas said it welcomed the comments and proposals received from mediators, including Egypt, Qatar and the United States, adding that it remained open to further talks and committed to working within the established mediation mechanism.
