IDF Chief promises 'firm response' following Jerusalem terror attack | LIVE BLOG
Zamir held an assessment meeting with commanders from the central Israel and West Bank, stressing that the operation against Hamas is intensifying on all fronts
Day 703 of the Israel-Hamas war
Trump suggested to the media that a comprehensive hostage deal could come soon from his most recent proposal, adding that there could be several bodies as the hostages "tend to die," after issuing his "last warning" to Hamas.
"The Israelis have accepted my Terms. It is time for Hamas to accept as well," Trump wrote on Truth Social. "I have warned Hamas about the consequences of not accepting. This is my last warning, there will not be another one!"
The deal would require Hamas to free the remaining 48 hostages on the first day in exchange for thousands of Palestinian prisoners jailed in Israel, and negotiate an end to the war during a ceasefire, according to Israeli media.
An Israeli official said Israel was "seriously considering" Trump's proposal.
According to the proposed plan, all hostages would be released on the first day of its implementation. In exchange, the Israeli military would cancel “Operation Gideon’s Tanks II” and halt its planned ground advance into Gaza City.
However, the proposal does not call for a full withdrawal of Israeli forces from the Gaza Strip or an outright end to the conflict.
Instead, negotiations would begin under the ceasefire to outline terms for a longer-term cessation of fighting and a post-war political framework.
Sources close to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu say Israel is taking US President Donald Trump’s proposal “very seriously.” At the same time, they expect Hamas to resist the terms, citing its rejection of similar arrangements in past mediation efforts.
The initiative comes as Israel prepares to escalate operations in northern Gaza and as international pressure mounts for a diplomatic end to the ongoing war.
