Hamas announced late Thursday that it is engaging in consultations with Palestinian resistance factions regarding a ceasefire proposal put forward by international mediators, aimed at halting Israel’s ongoing genocidal operations in the Gaza Strip and addressing the worsening humanitarian crisis.
In a statement, Hamas emphasized its dedication to safeguarding Palestinian lives and ending Israel’s campaign, which has caused widespread destruction and displacement. The group said it would provide a formal response following the conclusion of its internal discussions.
Details of the Ceasefire Plan
According to leaked details, the proposal—reportedly supported by former U.S. President Donald Trump—outlines a 60-day truce, including a phased exchange of Palestinian detainees and Israeli captives, alongside urgent humanitarian aid deliveries to Gaza. The timeline includes:
Day 1: Release of 8 Israeli captives
Day 7: Return of 5 bodies
Day 30: Return of 5 additional bodies
Day 50: Release of 2 captives
Day 60: Return of 8 bodies
These exchanges are to be conducted discreetly, without media or political exploitation. The plan also mandates immediate, large-scale humanitarian aid deliveries to Gaza, coordinated with the United Nations and the Red Crescent, to support a population enduring prolonged siege and bombardment.
Israeli Withdrawals and Civilian Protections
The proposal calls for Israeli forces to withdraw from key areas in northern and southern Gaza following the initial exchange, with boundaries to be set through expedited technical talks. This move is seen as a critical step toward alleviating civilian suffering caused by ongoing military operations.
Path to a Lasting Ceasefire
The agreement includes provisions for negotiations toward a permanent ceasefire, addressing:
1-Final prisoner and captive exchanges
2-Long-term security for Gaza without occupation
3-Palestinian-led governance and reconstruction
4-A formal end to Israel’s military actions
Hamas is expected to provide details on remaining Israeli captives, while Israel must disclose the full list of Palestinian detainees held since 7 October 2023.
International Backing
The ceasefire proposal reportedly carries guarantees from Donald Trump to uphold the truce and support a just resolution. For Palestinians, the agreement offers hope for immediate relief and a potential step toward ending decades of occupation and recurring military assaults on Gaza.
Further updates are expected as consultations progress. (ILKHA)
