The proposed framework, according to reports in the Washington Post and Times of Israel, includes conditions that both sides must meet for an immediate cessation of violence.<\/p>\n<p>The plan suggests that Hamas would release all 48 hostages, both living and dead, within 48 hours. In return, Israel would halt its military offensive in <a href=\"https:\/\/newsraise.com\/index.php\/2025\/09\/10\/israels-strike-on-doha-qatar-refutes-u-s-warning-claim\/\">Gaza<\/a>, begin a gradual troop withdrawal, and allow larger volumes of humanitarian aid to flow into the besieged enclave. The deal also requires Israel to release Palestinian prisoners.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most ambitious parts of the proposal is the requirement for Hamas to disarm completely and renounce its role in governing <a href=\"https:\/\/newsraise.com\/index.php\/2025\/09\/13\/qatar-pm-meets-trump-after-israeli-strike-on-doha-amid-gaza-war\/\">Gaza<\/a>. Instead, a transitional administration would be established, along with measures to deradicalize schools and religious institutions.<\/p>\n<p>While US officials have not released the plan publicly, some Israeli officials have dismissed media reports of its details as \u201ctrial balloons.\u201d Hamas leaders, on the other hand, claim they have not yet received a copy of the proposal for review.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Israel\u2019s Five Key Demands<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>A senior Israeli official, speaking to American editors during a background briefing, outlined five conditions Israel insists upon before agreeing to a ceasefire:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Hamas must disarm.<\/li>\n<li>All hostages must be released.<\/li>\n<li>Gaza must be fully demilitarized.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/newsraise.com\/index.php\/2025\/09\/10\/israels-strike-on-doha-qatar-refutes-u-s-warning-claim\/\">Israel<\/a> must retain control over security operations.<\/li>\n<li>A new governing administration must be created, independent of both Hamas and the Palestinian Authority.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>These demands directly clash with Hamas\u2019s long-standing conditions, which include a complete Israeli withdrawal from Gaza without disarmament. Hamas, which is supported by Iran, remains classified as a terrorist organization by the United States and the European Union.<\/p>\n<p>The talks come at a time when the <a href=\"https:\/\/newsraise.com\/index.php\/2025\/09\/13\/qatar-pm-meets-trump-after-israeli-strike-on-doha-amid-gaza-war\/\">Israeli military<\/a> has intensified operations in Gaza City, the enclave\u2019s largest urban center. Reports suggest that 700,000 residents have been displaced as Israeli forces target high-rise buildings and tunnels allegedly used by Hamas. By Sunday night, Israeli ground troops were reported to be within one kilometer of Gaza City\u2019s main hospital, raising fears of further civilian casualties.<\/p>\n<p>The Gaza peace initiative is reportedly being shaped by an international team that includes <strong><em>former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair, US special envoy Steve Witkoff, and Trump\u2019s son-in-law Jared Kushner.<\/em><\/strong> Their involvement highlights the high-level diplomatic effort being invested in what Trump has described as a \u201cfirst-time-ever opportunity\u201d for peace in the Middle East.<\/p>\n<p>The outcome of the <a href=\"https:\/\/newsraise.com\/index.php\/2025\/09\/13\/qatar-pm-meets-trump-after-israeli-strike-on-doha-amid-gaza-war\/\">Netanyahu-Trump meeting<\/a> could significantly alter the trajectory of the Israel-Hamas conflict. While the 21-point peace plan presents a bold framework, its success hinges on whether both Israel and Hamas are willing to compromise on long-standing demands.<\/p>\n<p>For now, optimism from Washington contrasts sharply with skepticism in the region. As the violence continues in Gaza, the world watches closely to see if this latest diplomatic push can finally break the cycle of conflict.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will meet US President Donald Trump at the White House on September 29, in what is being described as a&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":1403,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[39],"tags":[218,188,254,255,219,201],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v15.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Trump\u2019s 21-Point Gaza Peace Plan: What Israel and Hamas Must Do<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Trump unveils a 21-point proposal to end the Gaza war as Netanyahu visits Washington.
