On Friday night, Hamas delivered its much-anticipated response to the ceasefire proposal negotiated by the U.S. and Israel. Talks will begin in Egypt in the coming days to finalize the agreement, with both Israeli and Hamas delegations present. Instead, Hamas referred only to a part of the proposal that described Gaza’s future governance by a group of Palestinian technocrats. The Times noted the “clear display of unity” between Trump and Netanyahu. According to Channel 12, Trump then blindsided Netanyahu by eagerly pushing his twenty-one-point peace plan, and Netanyahu had to scramble his schedule in order to pore over the details of the proposal.
