Hamas Signals Openness to Ceasefire Deal Amid Renewed Diplomatic Push

In a potential breakthrough after nearly two years of conflict, Hamas has announced it responded “in a positive spirit” to a U.S.-brokered ceasefire proposal aimed at halting hostilities in Gaza. The proposal, backed by mediators Egypt and Qatar, outlines a 60-day truce that would include the phased release of Israeli hostages, increased humanitarian aid, and the start of negotiations for a permanent resolution.

Hamas confirmed it had completed internal consultations and was ready to “immediately enter a new round of negotiations” to implement the framework. The group emphasized its willingness to engage seriously with the terms, which also include a pause in Israeli military operations and surveillance flights over Gaza.

While U.S. President Donald Trump stated that Israel had agreed to the main conditions of the deal, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has yet to publicly endorse the plan. Netanyahu is expected to meet Trump in Washington next week to discuss the proposal further.

The response from Hamas has raised cautious optimism among mediators and international observers, though key issues—such as the permanence of the ceasefire and the disarmament of Hamas—remain unresolved. Still, the group’s tone marks a shift from previous deadlocked negotiations and could pave the way for renewed diplomatic momentum.
