Overview
- The Gulf Cooperation Council’s chief said Arab troops cannot be sent to Gaza “at the moment,” casting doubt on the proposed international stabilization force central to the plan.
- Foreign ministers from Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the UAE, Indonesia, Pakistan, Turkey, Qatar and Egypt welcomed the initiative and are pressing Hamas to engage, with Qatar and Egypt relaying the text and seeking clarifications.
- President Trump set a three-to-four day window for Hamas to respond, the White House says the timeline stands, and mediators report Hamas has reservations about disarming and the rapid, full hostage release.
- The proposal links an immediate ceasefire to Hamas releasing all 48 remaining hostages within days, Israeli releases of Palestinian prisoners, amnesty and safe passage for demobilized militants, and humanitarian aid and reconstruction under international oversight.
- Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave a qualified endorsement, with the public version vague on full Israeli withdrawal and timelines, which Arab leaders want explicitly included.
