"Trump provided few details, but he insinuated that the already catastrophic war on Gaza in which Israel has already killed more than 64,500 Palestinians and a famine has been declared could get even worse if Hamas did not submit to the terms of his new proposal. Negotiators from the US, Qatar, and Egypt have been working on a ceasefire deal for months, but Israeli officials have repeatedly rejected or failed to respond to efforts to bring an end to their military operations."
"Most recently, Hamas accepted a ceasefire proposal crafted months ago by Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, which would have resulted in the partial release of captives held in Gaza. However, Israel and the US backed out after Netanyahu changed his tune and insisted on a full release of captives as well as the full surrender of Hamas. Trump is now claiming that his new proposal could lead to a different and more positive outcome."
Observers are sceptical that Donald Trump's ceasefire proposal can bring Israel's genocide in Gaza to an end. United States President Donald Trump is pushing for a ceasefire deal in Gaza after issuing a last warning to the Palestinian group Hamas. Trump provided few details but insinuated that the catastrophic war in Gaza, in which Israel has killed more than 64,500 Palestinians and a famine has been declared, could worsen if Hamas did not submit to his terms. Negotiators from the US, Qatar, and Egypt have worked for months, but Israeli officials have repeatedly rejected or failed to respond. Hamas accepted a prior Netanyahu-crafted proposal for partial captive releases, but Israel and the US backed out after Netanyahu demanded full release and full surrender of Hamas. Trump says his new proposal could produce a different, more positive outcome, though details remain limited.
