The terrorist group Hamas has accepted Trump's peace plan.

Hamas issued a formal response to the 20-point plan presented by the U.S. president and said it is willing to release "all prisoners of the occupation", in accordance with the exchange formula included in the proposal. The statement also notes the movement's willingness to enter into immediate negotiations to discuss the details of implementation.

The plan, presented by Donald Trump and supported by Israel and several Arab and European countries, proposes that Hamas hand over the administration of the Gaza Strip to a body of Palestinian technocrats with Arab and Islamic support, also contemplating its disarmament.

In exchange, halts in the Israeli offensive, the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners, and the massive entry of humanitarian aid are offered. Hamas replied positively to the proposal, although it clarified that it will attempt to negotiate some terms.

In response, Donald Trump replied to the Palestinian group's statement, stating that "they are ready for a lasting peace" and called on Israel to "immediately stop the bombing of Gaza to get the hostages out safely and quickly".

The humanitarian and security context is alarming: the plan calls for international supervision of the territory, under the personal direction of Trump and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, without providing for a path to reunification with the West Bank, and 2 million inhabitants would be under their administration.

The casualty and displacement figures published in official reports reflect the dramatic cost of the conflict since the October 7, 2023 attack, which alone claimed 1,200 lives and the kidnapping of 251 human beings.

Hamas's statement, accepting the implementation of the plan, opens a window for complex and high-risk negotiations. It remains to be seen whether the parties and mediators will agree on the specificities and mechanisms that the transition to peace requires, including the timing and forms of demilitarization.
