Mossad: Hamas toughening demands for hostage deal, seeks Ramadan escalation
[IsraelTimes] The Mossad spy agency said Saturday that the Hamas terror group prefers an escalation of violence during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan to a hostage deal, adding that Mossad chief David Barnea met CIA Director Bill Burns this weekend as part of efforts by mediators to reach a temporary truce.

In the rare statement, carried by the Prime Minister’s Office, the Mossad said Barnea met on Friday with his American counterpart, "as part of the ceaseless effort to advance another deal for the return of the hostages." The meeting reportedly took place in Amman, Jordan.

"At this stage, Hamas is fortifying its position as if it is not interested in a deal, and it strives to ignite the region during Ramadan at the expense of the Palestinian population of the Gaza Strip," the Mossad said.
Well, they have all that International Support.
