Hamas Accepts Trump's Middle East Peace Plan, Plans Hostage Release

President Donald Trump has proposed a 20-point peace plan aimed at ending the conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, which Hamas has tentatively welcomed by agreeing to release all hostages and enter negotiations. Trump has urged Hamas to act quickly on the plan, warning that delays will not be tolerated, and has called for an immediate Israeli ceasefire to facilitate safe hostage release. While Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has endorsed the plan, both Netanyahu and Hamas have offered their own interpretations of its vague points, creating uncertainties about the full agreement. Former NATO commander Denis Thompson and other experts note that significant hurdles remain before a ceasefire can be fully implemented. The plan's announcement sparked widespread pro-Palestinian protests across Europe, reflecting the broader regional tensions. Despite cautious optimism from hostage family advocates, the peace deal is not yet finalized and requires further clarification and commitment from all parties involved.
