President Donald Trump took to Truth Social to reveal a major breakthrough in Middle East peace efforts, stating that Israel has agreed to an initial withdrawal line in Gaza, which has been shared with Hamas. In his post, Trump wrote: “After negotiations, Israel has agreed to the initial withdrawal line, which we have shown to, and shared with, Hamas. When Hamas confirms, the Ceasefire will be IMMEDIATELY effective, the Hostages and Prisoner Exchange will begin, and we will create the conditions for the next phase of withdrawal, which will bring us close to the end of this 3,000 YEAR CATASTROPHE. Thank you for your attention to this matter and, STAY TUNED!”

The announcement signals potential progress in Trump’s plan for “eternal peace” in the region, which includes a ceasefire, full hostage release, and Gaza reconstruction under a supervisory body led by Trump and Tony Blair. Trump emphasized that the deal exceeds expectations, with widespread support from European, Arab, and Muslim countries. Hamas has shown early signs of openness, but internal divisions persist, with the military wing holding sway over the hostages.

The post, viewed over 1 million times, has sparked mixed reactions. Israeli officials confirmed agreement to the terms, while Hamas demanded modifications. The U.S. State Department has not commented further, but the extension for Hamas to respond ends this week.
