Israel Gives Green Light to Gaza Peace Proposal

Israel has given the green light to a U.S.-sponsored peace proposal designed to bring a conclusive end to the war in Gaza. According to a senior official, the government has accepted the terms, which call for a permanent ceasefire in exchange for the release of all hostages and the complete disarmament of Hamas.
This decision marks a pivotal point in the conflict, opening a door for a diplomatic resolution after months of intense fighting. By accepting the proposal, Israel is signaling its preference for a negotiated settlement that achieves its primary objectives without prolonged military engagement, provided the terms are fully met.
The proposal’s core is a grand bargain. It offers Hamas an end to the war and a role in a future Palestinian governing body, but at the cost of its military capabilities. For Israel, it secures the return of its citizens and guarantees that Hamas can no longer pose a military threat, fulfilling its stated war aims.
The international community has lauded Israel’s acceptance and is now turning its attention to securing a positive response from Hamas. Mediators are working around the clock to bridge the remaining gaps and convince the group’s leadership that this proposal represents the best and perhaps final chance to end the suffering in Gaza.
