Trump’s Gaza Peace Plan Gains Global Backing Hamas signals possible acceptance as world leaders urge swift action ✨

Hamas Signals Possible Acceptance of Trump’s Gaza Peace Proposal Amid International Backing

Gaza City / Washington, D.C. – Hamas and several Palestinian factions are leaning toward accepting U.S. President Donald Trump’s latest peace initiative aimed at ending the war in Gaza. A formal response is expected to be delivered to Egyptian and Qatari mediators on Wednesday, according to diplomatic sources familiar with the ongoing negotiations.

Trump and Netanyahu Present 20-Point Gaza Ceasefire Plan

The proposal, unveiled on Monday at the White House alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, outlines a 20-point framework designed to halt hostilities, secure the release of hostages, and initiate a roadmap for post-war governance.

Key points of the plan include:

· Immediate ceasefire in Gaza once Israel formally accepts the agreement.

· Return of all hostages—alive and deceased—within 72 hours.

· Release of Palestinian prisoners held in Israel.

· A massive scale-up of humanitarian aid into Gaza.

· The creation of an interim administration run by Palestinian technocrats, overseen by an international “Board of Peace” chaired by Trump.

· Former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair named as a member of the Board.

Netanyahu, appearing alongside Trump, signaled his acceptance of the plan but stressed that Israeli security forces would maintain control of Gaza’s perimeter and remain inside parts of the Strip until all hostages were freed.

Palestinian Authority Backs U.S. Effort

The Palestinian Authority (PA), which governs parts of the West Bank, issued a statement through its WAFA news agency expressing support for the proposal. The PA emphasized its commitment to reforms, including holding presidential and parliamentary elections within a year of the war’s end.

The statement reaffirmed the PA’s vision of a modern, democratic, and non-militarized Palestinian state rooted in pluralism and peaceful power transfer. While Trump’s plan does not grant the PA an immediate role in Gaza’s governance, it does suggest that the body could assume control in the future once reforms are completed.

Arab and Muslim Nations Welcome Trump’s Initiative

Several Muslim-majority countries quickly welcomed the U.S. proposal, including Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, the UAE, Qatar, Pakistan, and Indonesia. In a joint communiqué, they praised Trump’s “sincere efforts to end the Gaza war” and voiced confidence in his ability to guide the region toward peace.

The statement further underscored:

· Commitment to rebuilding Gaza and preventing forced displacement of Palestinians.

· Rejection of any plans for the annexation of the West Bank.

· Support for U.S. partnership in securing long-term regional stability.

Global Response to the Gaza Peace Plan

European and international leaders also weighed in:

· European Council President Antonio Costa welcomed Netanyahu’s positive reaction and urged all parties to “seize this moment to give peace a genuine chance.”

· U.N. Human Rights Chief Volker Turk said any agreement leading to a ceasefire, release of hostages, and an end to suffering was “highly welcome.”

Mixed Voices from Gaza

On the ground in Gaza, reactions to the plan remain divided. Many residents, displaced multiple times by the conflict, expressed desperation for an immediate ceasefire regardless of political implications.

One resident in Deir al-Balah told CBS News:

“Anything that ends the bloodshed is good. We don’t want another war like October 7. We don’t want soldiers entering our homes again. Trump’s plan may not matter, but if it ends the killing, people will support it.”

Others voiced skepticism, viewing Trump’s proposal as biased toward Israel.

“Trump is Israel. America is Israel. The Arab states all conspired against us,” another man said, reflecting deep distrust of international mediation.

Still, many Gazans suggested that while the question of Palestinian statehood may be postponed, immediate peace and humanitarian relief must come first.

A Potential Turning Point?

If accepted, the Trump initiative could represent the most significant breakthrough in the Gaza conflict since October. With support from Arab states, the Palestinian Authority, and tentative openness from Hamas, the stage is set for a fragile but crucial opening toward ending the war.

Whether the plan translates into durable peace remains uncertain. For now, both regional leaders and international organizations are urging all sides to act swiftly before the momentum is lost.
