Overview
- The U.S. plan outlines a ceasefire, hostage releases, expanded humanitarian access, Hamas disarmament, an international stabilization force, and a Trump-led Peace Council for reconstruction oversight.
- President Trump gave Hamas only days to respond and warned of consequences if it rejects the proposal, saying refusal would end sadly.
- Israel’s leader publicly backed the framework while indicating military operations could continue if Hamas does not agree.
- Hamas was not involved in drafting the initiative, and its acceptance remains uncertain, raising doubts about the plan’s feasibility.
- Analysts point to shifting U.S. public opinion on Israel as a factor in Trump’s drive to secure an agreement, citing recent polls showing declining support.
