Hamas: ‘We can achieve a deal to release all prisoners’

Al-Qassam has enough to achieve an honourable swap through which all prisoners will be released.

Hamas’ military wing Al-Qassam Brigades yesterday warned the Israeli government against “time wasting” regarding the Israeli soldiers it captured, AlKhaleejOnline.com reported.

Marking Palestinian Prisoner’s Day, Al-Qassam’s spokesman Abu Obeida said: “We tell the Israeli occupation that there is only one way to regain its soldiers. Time will prove this.”

“Al-Qassam has enough to achieve an honourable swap through which all prisoners will be released.”

At the beginning of this month, Al-Qassam revealed that it “has four Israeli prisoners”; denying Israeli claims that there are ongoing talks to release them.
