Event Summary

Donald Trump announced that Israel and Hamas have agreed to the first phase of his peace plan to end the two-year war in the Gaza Strip. This phase includes the release of all remaining hostages held by Hamas, estimated at 48, with 20 believed to be alive. In exchange, Israel will release 250 Palestinian prisoners serving life sentences and an additional 1,700 Gazans detained after October 7, 2023. Israel will also withdraw its troops to an agreed-upon line. Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of Israel, confirmed the agreement, and Hamas also announced the deal, which stipulates an end to the war, withdrawal of occupation, entry of aid, and prisoner exchange. Mediators from Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey were thanked for their efforts in facilitating this historic agreement. The war, triggered by a Hamas attack on October 7, 2023, has resulted in over 67,000 Palestinian deaths and significant destruction in the Gaza Strip.
