Overview

• The White House detailed a framework for an immediate halt to fighting, release of all remaining hostages within 72 hours, phased Israeli pullback from Gaza and the disarmament and exclusion of Hamas from future governance.
• The plan creates a temporary transitional authority, described as a Board of Peace headed by President Trump and including former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair, alongside a temporary international stabilization force.
• Qatar’s prime minister and Egypt’s intelligence chief have presented the offer to Hamas, which is reviewing it but has not formally accepted, with past statements signaling resistance to disarmament.
• Trump pledged full U.S. backing if Hamas rejects or undermines the deal, and Netanyahu said Israel would "finish the job" against Hamas under that scenario.
• Netanyahu apologized to Qatar for a Sept. 9 strike that killed a Qatari serviceman and violated Qatari sovereignty, as Arab states engaged with the plan and the Palestinian Authority welcomed it while Israeli domestic politics pose hurdles.
