Key Points from Trump’s Comprehensive ‘Resolution Strategy’ for Gaza?

Provided that both sides agree to a specific series of terms, the halt to conflict will be followed by the freeing of all Israeli hostages, whether deceased or surviving, “in under three days” of Israel formally approving the deal.

In return for the release of hostages, Israeli authorities would release 250 individuals of Palestinian origin at present completing indefinite prison terms and 1,700 Palestinians in the Gaza region detained since the conflict started on October 7, 2023 subsequent to the lethal assault by Hamas on Israel.

For each captive from Israel whose remains are released, Israeli officials will return the corpses of 15 Palestinian fatalities.

This proposal does not require a total Israeli retreat ahead of the release of the hostages. Rather, the Israeli army would pull back to an agreed upon line, within the Gaza area, to get ready for a prisoner exchange.

The plan states that all military operations, such as air strikes and shelling, will be paused throughout the liberation procedure and combat positions will stay fixed until “conditions are met for the phased full withdrawal”.

Once all hostages are liberated, clemency will be awarded to members of Hamas – the Islamist military group that the premier of Israel, PM Netanyahu, has consistently pledged to destroy – who accept harmonious living and to decommission their weapons.

Individuals who desire to depart the Gaza region will be offered protected movement to nations who have consented to accept them.

This twenty-point proposal envisages the Gaza Strip as “a de-radicalized terror-free zone that presents no a threat to neighboring countries”. Additionally, it declares the area will be “revitalized for the advantage of the people of Gaza, who have experienced immense suffering”.

Crucially, and contrary to the vision of certain Netanyahu’s extremist political allies, Israel will avoid occupying or incorporate the region, which was home to 21 communities established by Israel prior to their populace was removed in the year 2005.

Additionally, no any individual be forced to leave the Gaza region, the strategy guarantees. People who wish to leave will be authorized to do so freely and granted reentry.

Hamas as an entity will not be permitted any participation, “directly or indirectly”, in the upcoming leadership of the area.

Trump Urges Delegates to ‘Move Fast’ as They Meet in the Egyptian Republic for Gaza Negotiations

Donald Trump has urged delegates from Hamas and Israel gathering in the nation of Egypt for vital discussions targeting ending the war led by Israel in Gaza to “accelerate progress,” remarking, in remarks on the day of Sunday, that there had been “very positive” talks.

President Trump said:

There were extremely constructive discussions with Hamas, and Countries from across the planet (Arab, Muslim, and everyone else) during the weekend, to liberate the detainees, stop the fighting in Gaza but, of greater importance, finally have long sought stability in the Middle East.

These discussions have been highly productive, and proceeding rapidly. Specialist groups will meet once more Monday, in Egypt, to address and refine the remaining specifics. Sources indicate that the initial stage is expected to conclude within the week, and I am requesting everyone to ACCELERATE PROGRESS.

The US envoy Envoy Witkoff is anticipated to participate in the negotiations, based on sources in Israel, in addition to Israel’s negotiators and a Palestinian group headed by Al-Hayya, the vice chairman of the administrative wing of Hamas.

Al-Hayya is reportedly due to have discussions with intermediaries from Egypt and Qatar in Cairo, Egypt this morning, prior to talks in the resort city of Egypt of Sharm El-Sheikh.

Nonetheless, Israel’s top delegate, strategic affairs minister Minister Dermer, is expected to join discussions toward the end of the week, subject to progress in the discussions, based on three Israeli officials.

Optimism about a prospective cessation of hostilities has escalated worldwide, with leaders from the West and Arab nations urging Hamas and Israel to come to a deal. This past Sunday, the Germany’s chancellor, Chancellor Merz, contacted Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel and expressed support for the Trump proposal, labeling it as “the optimal opportunity for peace”, based on a official statement.
