Overview

  • President Donald Trump said a ceasefire would take effect immediately once Hamas confirms, triggering hostage and prisoner exchanges tied to an initial Israeli pullback.
  • Hamas stated it is ready to release all Israeli captives and to enter mediated talks, while pressing for a complete Israeli withdrawal and avoiding a commitment to disarm.
  • Israeli officials said forces shifted to a defensive posture and a delegation will head to Egypt, as airstrikes in Gaza continued with Palestinian agencies reporting dozens of deaths.
  • Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he hopes to announce hostage releases in the coming days, while insisting the IDF will retain control of key areas and that Hamas must be disarmed.
  • The White House is sending Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff to Cairo, and the U.S. plan envisions the release of roughly 48 hostages within days, phased Israeli withdrawals, large Palestinian prisoner releases and expanded aid.
