Washington, D.C. — U.S. President Donald Trump announced on Tuesday that Israel has agreed to the terms of a proposed 60-day ceasefire in Gaza, urging Hamas to accept the deal and bring an end to the months-long conflict.
“Israel has agreed to the necessary conditions to finalize the 60-day CEASEFIRE, during which time we will work with all parties to end the War,” Trump posted on his Truth Social platform.
The president credited Qatar and Egypt for their diplomatic efforts in facilitating the agreement, stating, “The Qataris and Egyptians, who have worked very hard to help bring Peace, will deliver this final proposal.”
Trump underscored the urgency of the moment, warning that the current terms represent the best path forward for de-escalation. “I hope, for the good of the Middle East, that Hamas takes this Deal, because it will not get better — IT WILL ONLY GET WORSE,” he wrote.
The proposed ceasefire is part of renewed international efforts to halt hostilities and create conditions for broader peace talks. As of Tuesday, Hamas had not publicly responded to the offer.
Further details of the ceasefire proposal, including provisions for humanitarian aid and prisoner exchanges, are expected to be released pending confirmation from all parties.
