Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has accepted Donald Trump’s plan to end the war in Gaza, while Hamas has yet to issue an official response.
European and Middle Eastern leaders have welcomed the 20-point plan, as President Trump warned Hamas to accept it.
The plan proposes an immediate end to fighting, the release within 72 hours of 20 living Israeli hostages held by Hamas as well as the remains of the more than two dozen hostages who are believed to be dead – in exchange for hundreds of detained Gazans.
The plan also says Hamas will have no role in governing Gaza, and leaves the door open for an eventual Palestinian state – but Netanyahu later again ruled this out, the BBC said.
