The Israeli Cabinet has approved the outline of the agreement for the release of hostages captured by Hamas. Meanwhile, the US will send about 200 troops to Israel to monitor the Gaza ceasefire. Earlier on Thursday (October 9) night, Israel carried out a major air attack on Gaza City. The attack occurred when the Cabinet was meeting to vote on US President Donald Trump’s ‘Gaza Peace Plan’, which aims to permanently end the Gaza war.

According to CNN, the Hamas-controlled security agency said that the attack in the Sabra area of ​​Gaza City caused a multi-storey building to collapse and about 40 people were buried under the debris. The Israeli Army (IDF) confirmed the attack and said that the attack was carried out on Hamas terrorists. Gaza’s Civil Defense Agency said that four bodies have been recovered so far and dozens of people are still trapped under the debris. Mohammed Abu Salmiya, director of Al-Shifa hospital, said 30 Palestinians had been killed since Wednesday evening.

“We targeted terrorists who were close to Israeli soldiers and posed an immediate threat to them,” the IDF said. According to AFP, about 200 American soldiers will be deployed in Gaza. Their main job is to monitor the ceasefire agreement and assist in the hostage release process.

Trump announced ceasefire agreement

Just hours before the attack, President Donald Trump said that Israel and Hamas had agreed to the first phase. Trump said that as soon as the Israeli government gives approval, the war will end immediately. He also said that all the hostages are expected to be released in 1-2 days. Describing this as a historic and important step, Trump said that this is the first phase of his 20-point peace plan. In this, Hamas will release all the hostages and Israel will withdraw its forces to the agreed limit.

Donald Trump Peace Plan: US President Donald Trump has demanded Israel to stop the bombing on Gaza. The step was taken by Hamas after Hamas released all the hostages and accepting parts of the US -armed new peace plan. This initiative has increased the possibility of ending the Gaza war that has been going on for almost two years. Trump has also warned Hamas to respond immediately.

Trump’s announcement is being considered important

This announcement of Trump is considered a significant turn in the region. He said that this is not only for Gaza, but also for the peace being wanted in the Middle East for a long time. After this move, Gaza had heavy bombing during the first few hours, but followed by a dramatic decrease in air strikes and shelling, which led to a relatively for some time.

Israel supported

Israel said that it will work on implementing the first phase of peace scheme immediately. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu approved it during a visit to Washington. However, there are still many obstacles in the way of getting permanent peace, including the deadline, trust problems and political tension between the warning aspects.

Many questions were not answered

Many important questions in Hamas’s response are still unresolved. The Palestinian terrorist group, which started the attack on Israel in October 2023 and the Gaza war, has not yet clarified its position on disarmament. It is one of the main demands of Trump’s peace plan and is also included in the objectives of the Israeli war. Netanyahu has approved the scheme, but its route to the Palestinian state in future is very conditional. Apart from this, the time and limits of the return of Israel and the future of Enclave also remain disputed issues.

Regarding the future of Gaza war, Trump has said that he is firm to end the struggle with his 20 -point plan. However, Hamas has not yet approved all the 20 points of the plan and said that he will discuss the details of the process by joining the talks through intermediaries. As per the plan, all hostages, whether alive or dead, were to be released by Israel within 72 hours of publicly accepted. But it is not clear when the 72 -hour time limit will be completed. According to sources close to Hamas, it can be relatively easy to release the living hostages, but it may take several days to remove the dead hostages trapped in Gaza’s debris.

There is a possible turn in the Gaza struggle. In fact, on Friday (October 03), Hamas announced that he is ready to accept parts of US President Donald Trump’s Gaza peace proposal and has also proposed to release the hostages. This step is not only considered important in the regional political scenario, but mixed feelings are also being seen in the world.

After this announcement, the international community has reacted to this. From PM Modi to Macron, everyone has welcomed this decision. Other global leaders and institutions have also described this initiative of Hamas as welcome, but at the same time they have urged all the parties to take restraint and take forward the peace process.
