Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has not changed the conditions of the May 27 hostage proposal, the Prime Minister's Office announced on Tuesday.
"The charge that Prime Minister Netanyahu added new conditions to the May 27 proposal is false. Prime Minister Netanyahu's July 27 letter does not introduce extra conditions and certainly does not contradict or undermine the May 27 proposal."
This response by the PMO follows a report by the New York Times that the Israeli negotiating team has become less flexible in recent months regarding terms for a deal with Hamas.
