Hamas leader 'is under pressure from his commanders to agree to a ceasefire with Israel due to the suffering in Gaza the terror group is being blamed for'
- More than 38,000 Palestinians, mostly civilians, are reported to have been killed
- International mediators are still working with both sides to help fashion a truce
The CIA believes Hamas' leader in Gaza, Yahya Sinwar, is under pressure from his commanders to agree to an urgent ceasefire with Israel due to the extensive suffering of people in Gaza, according to a well-placed source.
CIA director Bill Burns told an off-the-record conference that Sinwar is facing blame for the thousands of deaths and displacements of civilians resulting from Israel's offensive in the Palestinian enclave, an anonymous source attending told CNN.
Burns, speaking at the Allen & Company summer retreat in Sun Valley, Idaho, allegedly told the conference on Saturday that pressure has grown in the last two weeks from senior leaders worn down by the battle to seek a lasting resolution.
