In a significant bid for peace, the Israeli government has accepted a U.S.-backed ceasefire proposal for Gaza. A senior official confirmed that Israel is ready to agree to a “full deal” that would end the war, provided that all hostages are returned and Hamas commits to complete disarmament.
This move is being interpreted as a proactive step by Israel to create momentum in the stalled peace talks. By publicly accepting the proposal, Israel is challenging Hamas to demonstrate its own commitment to ending the conflict and the suffering of the Palestinian people.
The proposal is ambitious, aiming for a permanent resolution rather than a temporary fix. It seeks to fundamentally change the situation in Gaza by removing Hamas’s military capabilities while simultaneously addressing the humanitarian crisis through a massive, internationally-supported reconstruction program.
With Israel’s acceptance, the diplomatic pathway is now clearly illuminated. The international community is united in its call for Hamas to walk this path, accept the terms, and bring an end to a devastating chapter for both Israelis and Palestinians.
