Hamas says it has received some ideas from the US through mediators on how to reach a Gaza ceasefire agreement.
The Palestinian armed group noted it was ready to release its 48 remaining hostages in Gaza in exchange for a clear declaration ending the war.
A Palestinian official informed the BBC that the US plan would see the hostages freed within the first 48 hours of a proposed 60-day truce, in return for Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli jails and negotiations on a permanent ceasefire.
This announcement followed US President Donald Trump's statement expressing that Israel had accepted his terms, accompanied by a warning to Hamas.
Israel's Foreign Minister, Gideon Saar, stated that the country is open to a ceasefire deal that includes releasing all hostages, with a warning from Prime Minister Netanyahu for civilians in Gaza City to evacuate immediately due to increased military operations.
Hamas indicated it is in constant communication with mediators to expand these ideas into an agreement that addresses the needs of the Palestinian people.
During the Israeli military's intensified attacks on Gaza, recent strikes resulted in numerous civilian casualties, raising humanitarian concerns as the conflict continues its deadly trajectory.
UN humanitarian chief Tom Fletcher has warned of an impending famine in Gaza, emphasizing the necessity for unimpeded humanitarian access and the protection of civilians.
The international community remains watchful as both sides share positions, with discussions ongoing about potential agreements that may bring a semblance of peace amid the ongoing violence.
