US President Donald Trump stated in a message on his Truth platform account, “I am pleased to announce that Israel and Hamas have signed the first phase of our peace plan.”

He added: “This means the release of all hostages very soon, and Israel withdrawing its forces to an agreed line as initial steps towards a strong, lasting, and enduring peace. All parties will be treated fairly! This is a great day for the Arab and Islamic worlds, for Israel, for all surrounding countries, and for the United States of America. We thank the mediators from Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey who worked with us to complete this historic and unprecedented event. Praise to the peacemakers!”
