Trump and Netanyahu agree new US peace plan for Gaza and warn Hamas to accept it

The plan calls for an immediate ceasefire, hostage release within 72 hours, and a transitional authority in Gaza, but Hamas’s acceptance remains uncertain, officials said.

  • On Monday, the White House released a 20-point plan minutes before President Donald Trump appeared with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, announcing their agreement on the proposal.
  • Amid a humanitarian crisis, the war has left much of the Gaza Strip in ruins after Hamas's Oct. 7, 2023 attack killed around 1,200 people and took 251 hostages.
  • Central to the plan is a ceasefire with staged Israeli withdrawal and an exchange of nearly 2,000 Gazan prisoners for hostages returned within 72 hours of Israel's acceptance.
  • Hamas has not yet accepted the proposal, though mediators in Qatar and Egypt said Hamas will review it "in good faith," while Benjamin Netanyahu warned Israel would "finish the job" if militants reject it.
  • Longer term, the plan envisions sidelining Hamas, creating a technocratic Palestinian committee and Gaza International Transitional Authority alongside a five-year reconstruction programme funded by Arab states and international donors.
