Hamas has accepted a draft agreement for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and the release of dozens of hostages, two officials involved in the talks said Tuesday. An Israeli official said progress has been made, but the details are being finalized.
The Associated Press obtained a copy of the proposed agreement, and an Egyptian official and a Hamas official confirmed its authenticity. The plan would need to be submitted to the Israeli Cabinet for final approval.

“Trump said ALL, by his first day, so a 6 week timeframe will not do.”
The amount of American hostages to knowledge is only seven people. So satisfying us shouldn’t be a major problem. But it shouldn’t have been a major problem for years now, either.
The deal at this point matters little concerning our people as the deciding of brokering it falls into the hands of the Israelis. If they accept it, then it is just time and both sides not trusting the other to complete it.
But I have one problem with the way it is written as I can’t see Israel holding hundreds of women and children. That is planted in the article to make Israel part of the villianry of the situation. A media lie to shift blame. And omitting that there are other country’s people involved held in Gaza by a terrorist group that were kidnapped outside of Gaza in an attack like our seven is a perfect example. Trump should broker his own deal and not leave the decision with Israel.
Make it simple, you give back my seven by the end of the week, or we bomb seven cities in seven days, Monday through Sunday. And if they are not immediately released, we do it again. That’s the Chicago way. They may kill the hostages anyway, if not already, but they will run out of cities at some point. The only thing people in terrorist groups like Hamas understand is not being able to complete their mission. Take the ability away and it’s game over one way or the other. And pretty soon even the Gazans will understand how to stop the pain and will demand Hamas to conform. And that is the only way to end this issue even if it isn’t a permanent fix.

It will take the wisdom of Solomon...
That is my PRAYER... may Netanyahu stand FIRM!!!!!
why would we trade dozens of healthy terrorists for a handful of hostages that should never have been taken???
No thanks
Reminds of another hostage situation and what happened when Carter lost and Reagan was about to enter the White House.
“why would we trade dozens of healthy terrorists for a handful of hostages that should never have been taken???”
Because it placades the situation with liberals in power. Trump won’t look at it that way. But he isn’t in the mix...yet. Remains to be seen.

Don’t forget, Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize just for existing.
Trump won’t get squat.
