This is the best summary I could come up with:
Moscow seeks to secure the release of the 229 captives in Gaza by working through all its contacts and within that context it also hosted Hamas representatives, Russia’s Embassy in Israel said.
“Russia’s contacts and actions in the Middle East and in international organizations are focused primarily on the immediate release of hostages held in the Gaza Strip,” the Embassy stated.
They spoke out after a Hamas delegation visited Moscow on the same day that Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Ali Baghiri Kani, Tehran’s chief nuclear negotiator, was in that city as well.
Russia has ties to all key players in the Middle East, including Israel, Iran, the Palestinian Authority and Hamas, the militant Islamist group that controls Gaza.
Separately, TASS news agency reported on Friday that another senior member of the Hamas delegation in Moscow, Abu Marzouk, had held talks with Kani.
The two discussed efforts to secure a ceasefire in Gaza and deliver humanitarian aid to its residents, and Baghiri Kani also reaffirmed Tehran’s strong support for the Palestinian cause, TASS said, citing Iranian embassy sources in Moscow.
