Trump’s 20-point Gaza peace plan also calls for the disarmament of Hamas, which the group has long described as a red line.“For Hamas, the governance of the Gaza Strip is a closed issue.

Hamas to not govern post-war Gaza? Names ‘almost ready’ for Palestinian committee – Here’s what we know

U.S. President Donald Trump is set to visit Israel just as the Israel-Hamas hostage release deal enters a critical phase. With global attention on the ceasefire and prisoner exchange, Trump’s visit could shape the fragile path to peace—or risk destabilizing it. What does his presence mean for the region, and can the agreement hold under pressure? Here’s what we know so far.

US President Donald Trump issued a warning to the Palestinian militant group Hamas, saying that it "must move quickly, or else all bets will be off." Taking to his social media platform Truth Social on Saturday (October 4), the American president wrote, “I appreciate that Israel has temporarily stopped the bombing in order to give the Hostage release and Peace Deal a chance to be completed. Hamas must move quickly, or else all bets will be off. I will not tolerate delay, which many think will happen, or any outcome where Gaza poses a threat again. Let’s get this done, FAST.

‘Must move quickly, or....’: Trump warns Hamas, says will ‘not tolerate’ any delay in Gaza peace plan

The Israel Defense Forces were ordered to halt their offensive to capture Gaza City on Saturday after US President Donald Trump said his Gaza truce plan was accepted by Hamas and called on Israel to stop bombing the strip. The military, however, warned Palestinians not to try to return to the besieged city, as it was still engaged in defensive operations and saying it remained a “dangerous war zone”. The order by the Israel’s political leadership came as it prepared to send its ceasefire-hostage negotiators for talks. Reports in the Israeli media said that talks could start as soon as Sunday, most likely in the Egyptian Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh. US Middle East Envoy Steve Witkoff was said to be heading to the region.&nbsp;&nbsp;“IDF troops are still encircling Gaza City, and returning there is very dangerous,” said its spokesman Col. Avichay Adraee, adding that the area north of the Wadi Gaza stream is a “dangerous combat zone.” “For your safety, avoid returning north or approaching areas where IDF troops are operating anywhere in the Strip—even in its south,” he added.&nbsp;US President Donald Trump said he appreciates that Israel has temporarily stopped the bombing in order to give hostage release and the peace deal a chance to be completed. In a post on Truth Social, Trump said, “Hamas must move quickly, or else all bets will be off.

<h2>Israeli troops strictly carrying out defensive operations</h2> The order to halt offensive to the IDF was issued after overnight talks between Israeli and US officials. It called for military activities to be reduced to a minimum, with troops strictly carrying out defensive operations, including strikes against threats to forces. It means that Israeli troops operating in Gaza City would not be advancing further. The IDF also dispatched additional Israeli Air Force drones to monitor the area to ensure troops do not come under attack during the offensive pause. The Israeli Prime Minister's Office said in a statement that "in light of Hamas's response, Israel is preparing to immediately implement the first phase of Trump's plan for the immediate release of all hostages." <h2>Israel planning to send negotiating team to finalize the deal</h2> Israel’s move followed President Donald Trump's demand that Israel immediately stop bombing Gaza after Hamas responded to the US president’s 20-point plan by saying it was ready in principle to release all hostages held in Gaza. Israel is also reportedly planning to send a negotiating team to finalize the deal, which includes a truce in Gaza, the return of hostages, the release of Palestinians from Israeli prisons, and international oversight on Gaza's reconstruction and governance after the end of the conflict. Hamas said earlier it had agreed in principle to release all Israeli hostages under the proposed exchange and is ready to negotiate an implementation. The Hamas civil defence agency reported “dozens of air strikes and artillery shelling on Gaza City and other areas in the Strip,” destroying 20 homes and killing at least four people in Gaza City’s Tuffah neighborhood and two children in the area of Khan Younis in the Strip’s south.

IDF halts Gaza offensive, negotiators brace for talks amid Trump’s push to end war

President Donald Trump has given a dramatic 3-4 days ultimatum to Hamas, unveiling a “New Gaza” peace plan alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The proposal promises an immediate end to the war if hostages are released and Gaza is demilitarised but comes with a stark warning, rejection will bring America’s full support for Israel to “finish the job.”

The UN, EU and Russia have welcomed the plan, while Palestinians call it a U.S.-Israeli agenda.
With doubts over Hamas’s response, questions remain.

What does “finish the job” mean, what is the price of refusal, and how many more lives could be lost if the war continues?

Trump sets 3-4 days deadline to Hamas | Israel Gaza war 

Gaza Peace Deal: Trump and Netanyahu have announced a new Gaza peace plan that aims to end the prolonged conflict through a detailed 20-point framework. The plan calls for an immediate ceasefire and the release of Israeli hostages within 72 hours, with the reciprocal release of detained Gazans by Israel. 


Gaza Peace Deal: Trump and Netanyahu Announce New Diplomatic Breakthrough

Gaza Peace Plan: U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have agreed on a new 20-point peace plan aimed at ending the Gaza conflict. The proposal includes an immediate ceasefire, the release of Israeli hostages, Hamas disarmament, and a phased Israeli withdrawal from Gaza.


Gaza Peace Plan: Trump & Netanyahu Agree New Peace Plan 

US President Donald Trump on Monday (Sep 29) presented a detailed plan to end the Gaza war, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu backing it and warning Hamas to accept or face further military action. The proposal mixes security guarantees for Israel with promises of aid, governance reforms, and economic revival for Gaza. Here are the 10 key takeaways:<h2>1. Immediate ceasefire and hostage release</h2>If both sides accept, Israel will halt all military operations. Hamas will have 72 hours to return hostages from October 7, alive or dead. Israel will free 250 Palestinian prisoners serving life terms, 1,700 Gazans detained during the war, and exchange the remains of Palestinians for those of Israeli hostages.Also read | <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/muslim-nations-back-trump-s-gaza-peace-plan-but-will-hamas-accept-the-deal-1759193878046">Key Muslim nations back Trump’s Gaza peace plan — but will Hamas accept the deal?</a><h2>2. Phased Israeli withdrawal</h2>Secondly, the Israel Defence Forces will pull back in stages as conditions are met. A full exit will follow once demilitarisation benchmarks are verified and a security mechanism is in place.<h2>3. Trump the 'peacemaker'</h2>A new “Board of Peace” will act as the transactional authority, and it will be headed by none other than Trump. It will also include other world leaders, including former UK prime minister Tony Blair. This body will oversee governance and direct aid flows until local Palestinian institutions are ready to take over.<h2>4. No forced displacement or annexation</h2>The plan rules out expelling Palestinians or annexing Gaza. Instead, residents will be encouraged to rebuild their lives inside the strip with international support.Also read | <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/trump-s-gaza-peace-proposal-leans-toward-israeli-side-says-senior-hamas-official-1759177686661">Trump’s Gaza peace plan leans toward Israeli side, says senior Hamas official</a><h2>5. Role of Hamas</h2>Hamas will not govern Gaza. However, members who surrender arms and accept peaceful coexistence will be granted amnesty or safe passage out of the territory.<h2>6. International Stabilisation Force</h2>An international force, backed by Arab partners, will deploy to Gaza to train Palestinian police, secure borders, and prevent arms smuggling. Indonesia has already shown willingness to contribute troops.<h2>7. Humanitarian surge</h2>Aid will be scaled up immediately, with UN and Red Crescent agencies overseeing delivery.

Gaza’s economic reboot</h2>The plan envisions Gaza as a “special economic zone” with preferential trade terms. Development projects would focus on jobs, infrastructure, and housing, aiming to turn the enclave into a hub of opportunity.It must be noted that Trump previously expressed an interest in developing property in the territory. He even posted an AI-generated video imagining scenes of him and Netanyahu sunbathing in Gaza, and portraying a resort called "TRUMP GAZA" where Gaza's ruins once stood.<h2>9. Palestinian Authority’s future unsure</h2>While Netanyahu rejects current Palestinian Authority involvement, the plan leaves room for the Authority once it completes reforms backed by international partners like France and Saudi Arabia.It suggests allowing the Palestinian Authority a role, once it completes its "reform program". However, speaking alongside Trump, Netanyahu said he saw "no role whatsoever" for the Palestinian Authority without it "undergoing a radical and genuine transformation."<h2>10. A pathway to Palestinian statehood</h2>For the first time in years, the door to statehood is explicitly mentioned. The plan acknowledges Palestinian aspirations and says conditions may soon allow credible steps toward self-determination."The conditions may finally be in place for a credible pathway to Palestinian self-determination and statehood, which we recognise as the aspiration of the Palestinian people," the plan says. &nbsp;
