US EditionIsrael's Army Says It Will Advance Preparations for the First Phase of Trump's Plan
Israel prepares to implement the first phase of the U.S.-backed peace plan amid ongoing conflict that has killed over 66,000 people in Gaza, with Hamas agreeing to partial terms.
- On October 4, 2025, Israel’s military announced it would accelerate efforts to get ready for the initial stage of the plan proposed by U.S. President Donald Trump to end the conflict in Gaza and secure the release of all remaining hostages.
- This followed Hamas' partial acceptance of Trump's proposal, which includes releasing 48 hostages within three days and giving up power, while other aspects require further Palestinian consultations.
- The plan, endorsed by Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and supported internationally, envisions halting Israel's offensive, withdrawing from much territory, releasing Palestinian prisoners, and allowing humanitarian aid and reconstruction.
- Trump stated, "I believe they are ready for a lasting PEACE," while experts note about 20 of the hostages are believed alive amid ongoing cautious negotiations and siege conditions in Gaza City.
- The developments raise hopes for ending the nearly two-year conflict but face risks from unresolved issues, potential sabotage by Hamas or Netanyahu, and the fragile condition of civilians in Gaza.
