Quakers in Britain reaction to reports of an agreement between Israel and Hamas
Text reads: This news is a crack of light during an unimaginably dark period. We welcome the reported deal’s commitments to release Israeli and Palestinian hostages and political prisoners, allow the return of Palestinians forcibly displaced from their homes by Israel, and accelerate humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip. This deal must not be an endpoint, but a step towards rapidly ending the Israeli occupation of Palestine, and ensuring a just, lasting peace for all Palestinians and Israelis. With more lives needlessly lost as each day passes, we pray all parties commit to its full implementation as quickly as possible. May loving hearts and cool heads prevail over the challenging days and weeks ahead.
