Trump's Peace Plan

Phase II of the Donald Trump-backed ceasefire will give the people of Gaza what Palestinians have demanded for decades – international protection against Israel.

Turkish officials say they are ready to join the Gaza stabilization force, calling Israel’s resistance politically motivated and insisting their participation is essential to the ceasefire.

Blair, the former UK prime minister, was the only individual initially named by Trump when the US president unveiled his 20-point plan to end the conflict between Israel and Hamas in late September.

Hamas says it won't disarm while the IDF is in Gaza and suggests a long-term truce or 'storing' its arms. Meanwhile, the IDF likely won't leave half of Gaza until Hamas disarms.

Hamas Shura Council member Bassem Naim told AP it is open to halting weapons use during a truce but rejects a US-proposed stabilization force entering Palestinian territory.

If Washington doesn’t want more wars in the Middle East, it needs to support the one country that keeps the region from falling back into chaos.

Israel's Foreign Ministry, sharing footage of Mashaal's address, slammed the comments, calling them a "direct contradiction of the core terms of the peace plan itself."

Blair's initiative to allow the Palestinian Authority to govern certain areas of Gaza was not dismissed outright by Israel, KAN reported.

This is the moment to dismantle Hamas’s remaining capabilities. Israel can and must finish the mission, not out of ambition, but out of necessity.

Life is not a straight, flat road, but “patient hiking” is definitely worth it.
