Overview

  • Trump said four days of intensive negotiations on Gaza have been productive and will continue as long as needed to reach an agreement.
  • Haaretz, citing unnamed sources, reports Hamas has agreed in principle to a U.S.-backed plan that includes the immediate release of all Israeli hostages.
  • The reported proposal would bar Hamas from governing Gaza, target a 48-hour window for hostage releases, set up a transitional authority and include assurances against forced displacement and strikes on Qatar.
  • Sources described terms tying a gradual IDF withdrawal to the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners in exchange for both living and deceased hostages.
  • Trump’s envoy said the president presented proposals to Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Egypt in New York, as Netanyahu reaffirmed goals to disarm Hamas and retain lasting security control over Gaza.
