Israel and Hamas Accept Part of Trump Peace Plan
A significant development in the Middle East peace process occurred when President Donald Trump announced that Israel and Hamas had agreed to the "first phase" of his peace plan.
The news broke after a roundtable event with conservative Christians, where photographer Evan Vucci noticed Senator Marco Rubio passing a note to Trump that read:
"You need to approve a Truth Social post soon so you can announce deal first."
This prompted Trump to reveal that a deal was imminent, stating:
"We're very close to a deal in the Middle East."
Following the announcement, it was confirmed that the agreement would involve a pause in fighting and the release of hostages, prisoners, and detainees.
