Hamas Submits Response To Israel’s Ceasefire Plan, Awaiting Reply

Israel is considering a response to a proposal from Hamas regarding a ceasefire plan for Gaza, which was outlined by President Biden in May.

Hamas has reportedly dropped its demand for a full ceasefire and is now seeking a withdrawal of Israeli forces from the Philadelphi corridor and Rafah crossing.

The proposal is part of a three-phase plan, which includes a ceasefire, the exchange of hostages and prisoners, and a reconstruction plan for Gaza.

The US has been facilitating negotiations, but has accused Hamas of blocking progress. The conflict began in October, with Hamas launching an attack on Israel, resulting in significant loss of life and displacement in Gaza.

Both sides have accepted the ceasefire proposal in principle, but negotiations are ongoing to resolve key issues.
