Hamas Accepts Most of Trump's Gaza Plan

President Donald Trump posted Hamas’s response to his Gaza peace proposal on Truth Social and gave the group until Sunday evening to accept the plan. Hamas told mediators it accepts most of Trump’s 20–21-point plan — including releasing all hostages under the proposed exchange formula, a ceasefire, and handing Gaza’s administration to a technocratic Palestinian body under international supervision — and said it is ready to enter immediate negotiations through intermediaries. The group said other issues must be resolved within a unified Palestinian framework tied to international law, while some Hamas figures rejected parts of the deal, called aspects vague or ambiguous, and said a 72-hour timetable to free hostages was impossible. Al Jazeera and other outlets reported Hamas formally handed its response to mediators, and images of celebrations in Gaza were broadcast as regional and U.S. actors awaited a final decision under Trump’s deadline.
