The 20-point proposal seeks to end the fighting immediately in return for the release of hostages and detained Gazans.

Hamas has responded to the US ceasefire proposals by accepting them in part but seeking further negotiations on a number of key points.

    I can’t believe they still have hostages.

    It’s like hitting a hornets nest and complaining they sting

    Whole situation is fucked

      They probably don’t but agreeing to release something you don’t have is pretty easy. Israel is just gonna ask for random names and break the agreement when people that don’t exist aren’t found.

        There are still 48 hostages. They have been repeatedly confirmed by both Hamas and Israel. There is literally no disagreement about who they are.

          Uh huh, what will you say when Israel demands more than 48 people in return.

          Ed: as a fun aside. How many Palestinian “prisoners” does Israel currently hold? And if you’d be so kind how many prisoners did they hold prior to Oct 7 that are not convicted combatants?

    Unfortunately, Trump is going to interpret “seeks changes” as disagreement regardless. If there is anything that “The Art of the Deal” seems to be not, it’s a negotiator, and if he was any other type of person the US government wouldn’t have shut down.
