Israel and Hamas are ready to launch mediated negotiations on Monday aimed at ending a two -year conflict that is destroyed by Gaza and destabilized the Middle East after US President Donald Trump described the offer of a militant group to release all hostages.
Egypt, a key intermediary in direct interviews, said he would host delegations from both sides to discuss the possible exchange of Israeli hostages for Palestinian prisoners.
The American special envoy Steve Witkoff and Trump’s brother -in -law Jared Kushner also traveled to Egypt to attend negotiations that follow Hamas’ request for some elements of the 20 -point US President’s plan to end the war. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu welcomed the developing agreement, but warned that it was not final. The Israeli official said the army took over the defense posture in the city of Gaza, while Hamas said that air strikes and shelling continued de facto capital of the enclave and killed dozens of people.
“After the negotiations of Israel, he agreed to the initial download line, which we have shown and shared with Hamas,” Trump said on Saturday’s social media post. “When Hamas confirms, the ceasefire will be immediately efficient, starting the hostage and replacing prisoners and creating conditions for the next phase of download, which will bring us closer to the end of this 3,000 years of the disaster.”
The Israeli delegation in Egypt will include the Minister of Strategic Affairs Ron Dermer, while the Kan Israel reports reported that Ghazi Hamad Osama Hamdan and Muhamed Darwish will represent Hamas. The discussion will focus on the final arrangements regarding the timing of the hostage and the list of Palestinian prisoners to be exempt according to Kan.
Netanyahu – faced a trump challenge to “immediately stop the bombing of gaza” to put pressure on Hamas to release Israeli hostages – said the Israeli army would move into the territory. He also had the opportunity to disarm Hamas with violence.
Immediately after ensuring the agreement, it would become an exchange of Israeli hostages and Palestinian prisoners, while Hamas’s disarmament would come in the second phase, Netanyahu said.
“I hope that in the coming days, during a vacation in Sukkot, we can announce the return of all our hostages, live and dead, in one single edition,” Netanyahu said on Israeli television on Saturday. Sukt starts on Monday evening and lasts a week.
Details of what Trump’s plan would mean is rare. His latest comment will move to Hamas after the group released their statements late on Friday, which made Trump call Israel to “immediately stop the bombing of gaza so we can get hostages safely and quickly!”
“I believe they are ready for permanent peace,” Trump said in a social media post after Hamas responded to his administration plan announced on Monday.
Israeli assets jumped into the prospect of ending the war in Gaza. Shekel was the best performance of a basket of about 30 main currencies monitored by Bloomberg last week and since 2022 increased by 1.9% to the strongest level.
Trump’s call for an immediate ceasefire may be politically complicated for Netanyahu, given that some of its far -right cabinet members will be vigilant about further interviews with Hamas. Group – described the US terrorist organization, the European Union and others – disagreed with some of the key provisions in Trump’s plan, including that it disarmed and has nothing to do with the post -war administration in Gaza.
Iran supported Hamas launched the war by attacking Israel from Gaza on October 7, 2023, killing 1200 people and kidnapping another 250. 48 remain in Gaza, and Israel claims to believe that around 20 is still alive. Since then, Israel has lost more than 450 soldiers in Gaza fighting.
According to the Ministry of Health, Hamas in the war was killed by more than 66,000 Palestinians. The Israeli War caused famine in parts of the enclave, according to the body that is not supported, and led another panel of the fleeting to declare him genocide.
Hamas said that handing along the hostages would be “dependent on the necessary field conditions for exchanging”.
“We will conclude negotiations on all matters related to the US plan, Senior official Hamas Musa Abu Marzouk said on Saturday on AL JAVEERA based in Qatar when she asked if the group was ready to disarm and accept exile of its leaders and fighters.” your weapons to this state. ”
Israel stated hard that it would not allow the independent Palestine and claim to be a security threat to the Jewish state.
Abu Marzouk said that Trump’s plan – especially the provisions of the future administration in Gaza – need to be addressed by the IS with other Palestinian fractions.
“It may take months” for everything to finish, he said.
For Trump, a ceasefire in the coming days and liberating hostages could strengthen his campaign to win the Nobel Peace Prize, while another winner was announced on October 10. Bloomberg announced that the presidential public and closed doors have been pushing the award in recent days.
In his answer, Hamas said on Friday that parts of Trump’s plan “require a unified national attitude and must be solved on the basis of the relevant international laws and resolutions”.
She also did not mention the proposal for the “Peace Council” – headed by Trump and the involvement of other world leaders, including the former British Prime Minister Tony Blair – to supervise and supervise the Technocratic Committee for Administration of Palestinians.
Arab nations put strong pressure on Hamas to agree to Trump’s proposal. Egypt and Qatar expressed the approval of Hamas’s statement with Qatar, who served as an intermediary in previous rounds of interviews and said that Trump’s pressure could lead to “rapid results that would end the bloodshed of the Palestinians”.
