U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday called on Hamas to accept what he described as a “final proposal” for a 60-day ceasefire with Israel in Gaza, saying Israel has already agreed to the terms. Trump said mediators from Qatar and Egypt will deliver the offer, which he framed as the best chance to halt the fighting.

In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump added that his envoys—Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Vice President JD Vance—held a “long and productive” meeting in Washington with Israeli adviser Ron Dermer. The president plans to press the matter further when Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visits the White House on Monday.

According to U.S. officials, the plan pairs a 60-day truce with the release of about half of the remaining hostages in Gaza in exchange for Palestinian prisoners and the remains of Palestinians. The Gaza war began after Hamas’ 7 October 2023 assault that killed roughly 1,200 people and led to 251 hostages being taken. Gaza’s health ministry says Israel’s subsequent military campaign has killed more than 56,000 Palestinians and displaced the enclave’s entire population.
