US President Trump announced on Wednesday (October 8) that Israel and Hamas have signed the first phase of the Gaza peace plan proposed by the United States, which involves Israel releasing prisoners in exchange for Hamas handing over 47 Israeli hostages who are still alive or have died. Hamas, on the other hand, called on Trump and the countries involved in the mediation to ensure that Israel fully implements the ceasefire agreement.

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's office issued a brief statement on Thursday (the 9th) saying that Israel will bring back all the hostages held by Hamas in Gaza.

Trump posted on the Social media platform Truth Social on Wednesday: "I am proud to announce that both Israel and Hamas have signed the first phase of our peace plan."

He added, "This means that all the hostages will be released soon and Israel will withdraw its troops to the agreed route. This is the first step towards a strong, lasting and permanent peace."

Qatar confirmed that Israel and Hamas have reached a first-phase ceasefire agreement.

The spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Qatar, Ansari, wrote on the X platform: "The mediator announced tonight that both sides have reached an agreement on all the terms and implementation mechanisms of the first phase of the Gaza ceasefire agreement. This will end the war, release Israeli hostages and Palestinian prisoners, and allow aid to enter Gaza." The specific details will be announced later.

Hamas said on Thursday that it had reached an agreement to end the war in Gaza after negotiations on Trump's proposal. This agreement includes Israel's withdrawal from Gaza as well as the exchange of hostages and prisoners.

Hamas has called on Trump and the countries involved in the mediation to ensure that Israel fully implements the ceasefire agreement.
