Hamas has accepted U.S. President Donald Trump’s proposed 20-point Gaza peace plan, agreeing to release all Israeli hostages, both alive and deceased. The move has been welcomed by UN Secretary-General António Guterres, whose spokesman Stephen Dujarric said the announcement was encouraging. Guterres urged all sides to seize this chance to end hostilities, reiterating his call for an immediate and lasting ceasefire, unconditional release of all detainees, and unrestricted humanitarian aid. He also praised Qatar and Egypt for their mediation. Following Hamas’s response, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office announced Israel’s readiness to begin the first phase of Trump’s plan, which focuses on the hostages’ immediate release. The Israeli statement emphasized cooperation with the U.S. to ensure that any end to the war aligns with Israel’s policies while remaining consistent with Trump’s vision. The development marks a potential breakthrough in efforts to halt the Gaza conflict, though challenges to lasting peace remain.
