Trump Announces Initial Agreement on Gaza, Claims Imminent Hostage Release and Israeli Withdrawal
Washington D.C. – Former US President Donald Trump announced Wednesday that Israel and Hamas have agreed to the first phase of what he termed his “Gaza peace plan,” promising the complete release of all remaining hostages and a full Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip.
In a post on his social media platform, Truth Social, Trump stated he was “very proud” to announce that both sides had signed onto this initial stage of the agreement. He described the deal as guaranteeing the “imminent” release of all hostages and a subsequent Israeli troop withdrawal along mutually agreed-upon lines, framing it as a crucial first step towards “a strong, lasting, and eternal peace.” Trump asserted that all parties would be treated fairly under the plan.
“This is a GREAT day for the Arab and Muslim world, for Israel, for all surrounding nations, and for the United States of America,” he wrote, also extending gratitude to Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey for their mediation efforts, calling the moment “historic and unprecedented.”
The announcement comes as international efforts to secure a ceasefire and hostage release have been ongoing for months. While details of the plan remain scarce, Trump’s statement suggests a significant breakthrough in negotiations.
He concluded his message with a benediction, “Blessed are the peacemakers!” signing off with his full name and title.
The veracity and specifics of Trump’s claims are currently being sought from official sources in Israel, Hamas, and the mediating nations. Further details are expected to emerge in the coming days.
