Trump and Netanyahu Unveil Gaza Cease-Fire Plan, Await Hamas Response

The 20-point proposal ties a rapid cease-fire plus hostage releases to staged Israeli withdrawals with international oversight of Gaza.

Overview

  • The White House detailed a 20-point framework that calls for an immediate halt to fighting and the release of all remaining hostages within 72 hours of agreement.
  • The plan links Israeli pullbacks to Hamas disarmament and creates an International Stabilization Force plus an oversight body, the Board of Peace, led by Trump with figures including Tony Blair.
  • Qatar and Egypt have presented the proposal to Hamas for review, while the Palestinian Authority welcomed the effort and pledged governance reforms.
  • Netanyahu endorsed the plan and warned Israel would "finish the job" if Hamas rejects it, as Trump promised U.S. backing in that scenario.
  • Israeli operations continued in Gaza City during the Washington rollout, and Netanyahu apologized to Qatar for an earlier strike in Doha that killed a Qatari serviceman.
