US President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have reportedly reached a consensus on a Gaza ceasefire framework, according to Israeli media. The agreement came after a recent phone call between the two leaders, following heightened tensions due to a US airstrike on Iran. Sources claim the war in Gaza could end within the next two weeks under the terms of this deal.
The reported plan includes the removal of Hamas from the Gaza Strip and the handover of administrative control to a joint team from the United Arab Emirates and Egypt. The deal also outlines the release of Israeli hostages currently held in Gaza. Additionally, arrangements are being discussed for the voluntary resettlement of Palestinians seeking to relocate to third countries.
Although there has been no official confirmation from the US or Israel, the agreement hints at a major shift in regional dynamics. If implemented, the role of Arab countries like the UAE and Egypt in post-war governance could mark a new era of cooperation and diplomacy in the Middle East. However, experts warn that local resistance, especially from Palestinian groups, could pose serious challenges to the plan’s execution.
Meanwhile, President Trump made headlines with his blunt remarks directed at both Israel and Iran. Despite announcing a truce between the two countries, he publicly criticized both for violating the terms. In a series of posts and statements, he urged Israel to “bring your pilots home” and expressed frustration over renewed bombings, calling them a breach of the agreement.
Trump also declared that recent US strikes on Iranian nuclear sites had “completely demolished” key facilities, despite media skepticism. He dismissed critical reports as “fake news” and claimed Iran will never be able to rebuild its nuclear program. If the ceasefire holds, it could serve as a major political achievement for Trump, especially as he faces global scrutiny over his military decisions.
