The new American proposal for a hostage-ceasefire deal with the Hamas terror group includes “highly significant guarantees” that Israel won’t resume fighting so long as talks are ongoing for an end to the war, Ynet reports, citing sources privy to the details of the negotiations.
According to the sources, the IDF will not stay in its current positions if the proposal goes into effect, and a “rearrangement” is likely amid the ceasefire.
The proposal, which a source close to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said yesterday that Israel was “seriously considering,” reportedly calls for Hamas to release all 48 hostages, living and dead, on day one, while Israel would release hundreds of Palestinian terrorists with blood on their hands, and thousands of other prisoners.
In addition, the IDF would call off its conquest of Gaza City and would remain outside the city, according to the report.
The two sides would engage in talks over the end of the war under the personal oversight of Trump, and the ceasefire would continue as long as negotiations last.
