Gaza: Israel halts offensive after Hamas agrees to Trump’s plan
According to a news report on Asia News,
Yesterday morning, 05th of October, the Israeli army ordered a halt to the offensive on Gaza City, declaring that it will limit itself to “defensive operations”, following last night’s turning point with Hamas’ announcement that it accepts Trump’s plan, albeit with certain conditions.
The US president immediately asked Israel to halt operations. US Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff is now expected in Egypt, where new negotiations are due to take place in the coming days to finalise the details of the ceasefire and the release of Israeli hostages still in Gaza.
