Trump announces Gaza ceasefire: "Hamas better agree"

Donald Trump announced on his social network that U.S. representatives held a “long and productive” meeting with the Israeli side regarding the conflict in Gaza.

According to him, Israel agreed to the key terms for a 60-day ceasefire. During this time, all sides are expected to engage in seeking a final resolution to end the war.

The peace plan will be officially delivered through mediators — Qatar and Egypt. Both countries were actively involved in the negotiations and, according to Trump, “worked hard for peace.”

The president noted that Hamas should accept the terms now: “It won’t get any better — only worse.”

This statement was made by Trump amid his efforts to present himself as a key Middle East peace broker ahead of the elections.

Earlier it was reported that the Israeli army conducted a massive operation in Gaza, killing dozens of militants, striking 140 targets by air, and destroying part of the underground infrastructure used by terrorists.
