Hamas trying to lead peace talks while Israel shuts them out is nothing new.
Israel almost certainly won't accept any peace talks, because they don't want to coexist with Palestine - the whole "war" always was and continues to be a farcical cover for a genocide.
oh but I thought "HaMaS dOeSn'T wAnT pEaCe"
I mean in the actual article the title is: Israel says Hamas rejects key elements of US ceasefire plan for Gaza
So it seems that way. That, and historically they prefer more war and death over peace, as is evidenced by thousands of rockets year after year into civilian territory.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has said that if a ceasefire plan backed by the US and UN does not progress, Hamas will be to blame.
Mr Blinken reiterated his call for Hamas to accept the plan as outlined by President Biden 11 days ago.
He said the onus was on "one guy" hiding "ten storeys underground in Gaza" to make the casting vote, referring to Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar.
Mr Blinken said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had "reaffirmed his commitment" to the proposal when they held talks in Jerusalem on Monday.
Mr Netanyahu has not publicly endorsed what Mr Biden outlined nor said whether it matches an Israeli proposal on which Mr Biden's statement was based.
Mr Blinken described as a "hopeful sign" Hamas's response to a resolution passed by the UN Security Council on Monday supporting what Mr Biden had announced.
The resolution noted that Israel had accepted what Mr Biden had presented and called on Hamas to do so as well.
Hamas issued a statement on Tuesday welcoming "what was included" in the resolution.
But Mr Blinken said Hamas's response was not conclusive, adding that that "what counts" is what is said by the Hamas leadership in Gaza, "and that's what we don't have".
If the proposal did not proceed then it was “on them”, he said.
If Hamas rejects the ceasefire its Hamas' fault.
If Israel rejects the ceasefire its... Hamas' fault?
Context, the statement is saying technically the agreement was made with Hamas leaders outside of Gaza. Doesn't sound like they're in contact with the leaders actually still in Gaza. So if the proposal stalls it's on them (Hamas currently inside Gaza, as opposed to their outside leadership who have agreed). At least that's how I would read it with the context. There wasn't anything in that statement to suggest he was talking about if Israel rejects the ceasefire it would be Hamas's fault, that doesn't even make sense.
Blinken said the Hamas statement was "a hopeful sign" but definitive word was still needed from the Hamas leadership inside Israeli-besieged Gaza. "That's what counts, and that's what we don't have yet."
Hamas is repeating that they want a permanent ceasefire. That position is unlikely to change. The temporary ceasefire phase is supposed to work towards it. But Israel is already saying they do not want a permanent ceasefire making it a non-starter.
If Israel rejects the ceasefire its… Hamas’ fault?
Where does it say that?
He said the onus was on “one guy” hiding “ten storeys underground in Gaza” to make the casting vote, referring to Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar.
I'm not wasting the time explaining this to you after the other user already did.
Yeah, so, nothing new.
The headline in the actual article is: Israel says Hamas rejects key elements of US ceasefire plan for Gaza
