Gaza Peace Plan: At least six people died after Israel launched attack on Gaza just a few hours after the United States President Donald Trump had called for a halt to the bombing. The local authorities stated that while one of the strikes killed four people in a house in Gaza City, another killed two others in Khan Younis in the south, reported Reuters. The Israel's attack came just a few hours even after Hamas agreed to release all hostages and accepted some terms in Trump’s plan to end the war.
Apart from this, the Israeli military's Arabic spokesperson issued a warning for residents of Gaza city, saying it remained a "dangerous" combat zone. In a post on X (formerly Twitter), he urged the residents to avoid going north in the enclave or nearing any areas where the military operates. Axios earlier reported that the Israeli military will shift to defensive operations in Gaza and halt its plan to seize Gaza City, reported Reuters.
Earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel is preparing to implement the “first stage” of US President Donald Trump's plan to end the war in Gaza after Hamas agreed to free hostages. A statement from the prime minister's office Saturday said Israel would work “in full cooperation” with Trump to end the war in accordance with its principles.
Donald Trump on Friday ordered Israel to stop bombing the Gaza Strip after Hamas said it had accepted some elements of his plan to end the nearly two-year war and return all the remaining hostages taken in the October 7, 2023, attack. Hamas said it was willing to release the hostages and hand over power to other Palestinians, but that other aspects of the plan require further consultations among Palestinians.
