BREAKING: Israel agrees to finalize 60-day ceasefire: Trump

Trump posted to Truth Social, "My Representatives had a long and productive meeting with the Israelis today on Gaza. Israel has agreed to the necessary conditions to finalize the 60 Day CEASEFIRE, during which time we will work with all parties to end the War."

"The Qataris and Egyptians, who have worked very hard to help bring Peace, will deliver this final proposal. I hope, for the good of the Middle East, that Hamas takes this Deal, because it will not get better — IT WILL ONLY GET WORSE. Thank you for your attention to this matter!"

The war between Israel and Hamas broke out October 7, 2023 when Hamas terrorists slaughtered around 1,200 Jews in Israel and took over 200 hostages. Since then, Israel has been fighting to get the hostages back as well as eliminate Hamas.

The announcement from Trump also comes on the heels of a ceasefire between Israel and Iran—a large state sponsor of terrorism in the Middle East—after the US dropped a number of bunker-busting bombs and missiles on Iran's nuclear facilities. After the US strikes, Iran launched a weak response in comparison, with only few missiles being shot at a US military base in Qatar and no deaths or injuries were reported.

Trump then called for a ceasefire last month between Israel and Iran, which has held. The conflict between the two nations started when Israel launched an attack one day after Trump's 60-day deadline he set for Iran to make a deal to cease ambitions with nuclear materials.
