On Saturday, the world leaders welcomed Hamas’s agreement on the release of all hostages on October 7 in Gaza on the basis of a peace agreement designed by US President Donald Trump, who called it a “significant” step forward and “best chance of peace” in an effort to end the war in the region.
Hamas said on Friday that he was ready to release the hostages held in Gaza on a peace agreement designed by Donald Trump, but wanted to negotiate on details and the word in the future of Palestinian territory. Soon after the announcement of Hamas, US President Trump ordered Israel to “immediately” stop bombing the Gaza belt.

“Based on a statement that Hamas has just issued, I believe they are ready for permanent peace. Israel must immediately stop the bombing of gaznens to get hostages safely and quickly to get hostages!” Trump published social.
Hamas’s statement, however, did not mention their intentions of disarmament, a key part of the US President’s plan, and the move that the group had previously resisted.
