Today, our detailed question is from Ashleigh, who lives in Bangor, Maine. Ashleigh says, from what I understand of the proposed truce between Gaza and Israel, I’m not sure Hamas will be on board. Here is what I understand, and I’d like the panels to take.
Immediate Ceasefire
All military operations, including aerial and artillery bombardments, would be suspended.
Hostage and Prisoner Exchange within 72 hours of Israel’s acceptance:
All hostages (alive and deceased) held in Gaza would be returned.
Israel would release 250 Palestinian prisoners serving life sentences and 1,700 Gazans detained since October 2023. For every Israeli hostage whose remains are returned, Israel would release the remains of 15 deceased Gazans.
Hamas Disarmament and Amnesty
Hamas members who commit to peaceful coexistence and decommission their weapons would be granted amnesty. Those wishing to leave Gaza would be offered safe passage to receiving countries.
Humanitarian Aid and Reconstruction
Aid would surge into Gaza at levels matching the January 2025 hostage deal (600 trucks/day). Infrastructure rehabilitation includes water, electricity, sewage, hospitals, bakeries, and rubble removal. Aid distribution would be managed by the UN, the Red Crescent, and neutral international organizations.
Governance and Oversight
Gaza would be governed by a temporary technocratic Palestinian committee, excluding Hamas. Oversight would be provided by an international body called the “Board of Peace,” chaired by President Trump and potentially including figures like Tony Blair.
6. Security and Long-Term Vision
An international stabilization force, led by Arab partners, would take over security. The plan gestures toward eventual Palestinian statehood, though details remain vague.
Fallback Clause
If Hamas rejects the deal, Israel would retain full backing to continue military operations and clear Hamas-controlled areas.
As I understand it Israel has already agreed to this plan.
