U.S. President Donald Trump said Israel has agreed to a “necessary condition” for a final ceasefire in Gaza.
Trump said in a post on social networking on truth without elaborating on what the conditions are.
“The Egyptians who are working on peace will make this final offer. I hope … Hamas has reached this deal because it won’t get better – it will only get worse.”
In the attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, Israel launched a military campaign in Gaza, in which about 1,200 people were killed. According to the Hamas-Operation Department of Operations in the region, at least 56,647 people have been killed in Gaza since then.
It is unclear what conditions are for the ceasefire and whether Hamas will accept it.
Trump’s announcement comes ahead of next week’s meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, with the U.S. president saying he will be “very determined”.
Trump said on Tuesday that he believes Netanyahu wants to end hostilities in Gaza.
Trump added: “He thought. I can tell you he thought. I think we’ll have an agreement next week.”
Shortly after Israel order Evacuation in northern Gaza Before adding military operations.
In March, the previous ceasefire deal collapsed when Israel launched a new strike on Gaza. The Israeli military described the action as a “preemptive strike…based on Hamas’ willingness to carry out terrorist attacks, establish force and re-arming operations.”
The ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas (starting on January 19) was set up in three phases, but did not surpass the first phase.
The second phase includes the establishment of a permanent ceasefire, the return of the remaining hostages in Gaza in exchange for Palestinians imprisoned in Israel, and the complete evacuation of Israeli forces from Gaza.
