US President Donald Trump has announced that peace talks aimed at ending the conflict in Gaza are making significant progress, with negotiators from multiple countries meeting in Egypt. Trump stated that there is a 'real chance' for a deal, highlighting his 20-point peace proposal, which includes a ceasefire, the disarmament of Hamas, and Israel's withdrawal from Gaza, along with the deployment of an international security force and increased humanitarian aid. While Israel has accepted the plan, Hamas has yet to agree to its key conditions, including disarmament and guarantees against renewed military action. The negotiations, which coincide with the anniversary of the October 7 attack, are seen as a potential turning point not only for Gaza but for broader peace in the Middle East. Talks are ongoing, with international mediators and US officials actively involved, as the humanitarian crisis in Gaza continues to worsen.
