Overview

• Hamas said it will free all remaining Israeli hostages, including bodies, and is ready for mediated negotiations on implementation.
• The group signaled readiness to hand Gaza’s administration to an independent Palestinian technocratic body with Arab and Islamic backing.
• Hamas stopped short of full acceptance, leaving disarmament and other clauses unresolved and seeking clarifications on practical timelines.
• President Trump gave Hamas until Sunday 6 p.m. in Washington to accept the proposal and warned of severe consequences if it refuses.
• After Hamas’ statement, Trump urged Israel to halt bombing to enable a safe exchange tied to a 72-hour window, prisoner releases of nearly 2,000 Palestinians, large UN/Red Crescent aid flows, and oversight by a U.S.-led Peace Council that includes Tony Blair.
