Trump says Israel agrees to conditions for 60-day ceasefire with Hamas

U.S. President Donald Trump claims Israel has accepted the conditions for a 60-day ceasefire with Hamas.

He's now calling on the Palestinian militant group to do the same.

Park Kun-woo has the latest.

A temporary ceasefire between Israel and Hamas may be about to take effect.

This comes after U.S. President Donald Trump posted on social media Tuesday that Israel has agreed to the "necessary conditions" to establish a 60-day ceasefire.

He also said efforts from all parties will be made to end the war during that period.

Related hours-long talks between Trump's envoy, Steve Witkoff, and Israeli Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer took place at the White House earlier the same day.

Trump also urged Hamas to accept the proposal that's said to be delivered by mediating countries Qatar and Egypt.

He warned that the conditions will only get "WORSE" if Hamas does not accept the offer.

No clear response from Hamas has yet been made.

Pundits say Hamas' long-standing desire for a permanent ceasefire and staying in power could act as a potential variable.

Alongside these remarks, Israel has continued to ramp up its military pressure.

Israeli officials warned of more intense attacks to come if the deal does not proceed soon, ordering civilians in Gaza City to move to the South.

Israeli forces have reportedly killed scores of people in Gaza on Tuesday alone.

Amid persistent tensions in the region, Trump is set to meet Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu next week for further discussions.

Trump said he plans to take a "very firm" stance during the meeting, raising questions on whether the proposed ceasefire will actually proceed as he claims.
