Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu outlined the next steps in the Gaza peace plan on Sunday, highlighting the disarmament of Hamas and the release of all hostages as core components. According to Netanyahu, Hamas will be demilitarized either through military action by Israel or through the plan proposed by Donald Trump. Netanyahu confirmed that Israel would not fully withdraw from Gaza. He expressed hope for the imminent announcement of hostage releases, before upcoming talks in Egypt. Negotiations to end the war in Gaza are set to intensify in Egypt after Hamas announced it had accepted parts of US President Donald Trump’s peace plan. Trump dispatched Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff to Cairo to lead US efforts, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed that a delegation from Israel is also heading to Egypt.
