The U.S. president said the plan has been shared with Hamas, and that once confirmed by the terrorist group, the ceasefire and hostages and prisoner exchange will begin immediately.
Naim Qassem claims the U.S. ceasefire proposal is part of Jerusalem’s alleged expansionist project.
Israel halted offensive operations in Gaza overnight on Friday following Hamas’s response to a U.S. ceasefire proposal.

The government has six weeks to reevaluate its license, but is unlikely to resume deliveries to the IAF.
Jerusalem is readying for “the immediate release of all hostages” from Gaza, Prime Minister Netanyahu’s office announced.
The U.S. president said his Israel and Arab-backed deal “spares the lives” of remaining Hamas members and claimed more than 25,000 have already died.
