Hamas has announced that it will review US President Donald Trump's peace plan for Gaza, following an initial rejection. The group plans to discuss the proposal internally and with other Palestinian factions before issuing a formal response. This decision comes after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed his support for the plan during a meeting with Trump. The proposal requires Hamas to disarm and surrender in exchange for a ceasefire, humanitarian aid, and reconstruction efforts in Gaza, where the death toll from the ongoing conflict has exceeded 66,000 Palestinians, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.

A senior Hamas official stated, "We will begin studying it today," indicating that the group is taking the proposal seriously. Hamas representatives are expected to present their response to Qatari and Egyptian officials by Wednesday. Despite the pressure to disarm, Hamas has previously asserted its right to resist until the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories ends.

Netanyahu has warned that if Hamas does not accept the proposal, Israel will take unilateral action. Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar reiterated that the plan is now in Hamas's hands, stating, "We will now see if Hamas accepts the president’s plan." He also expressed concerns about Hamas's past attempts to alter agreements.

International support for Trump's plan is growing, with the Kremlin expressing hope for its success. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that Russia welcomes efforts aimed at "ending the ongoing tragedy" and is ready to assist in the peace process if needed. The situation remains tense as the world watches for Hamas's response to the proposed plan.
