President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu say they’ve agreed to a plan to end the war in Gaza, but it’s unclear whether Hamas will accept terms.

Trump on Monday laid out a 20-point plan for ending the Israel-Hamas war and establishing a postwar Gaza governance.

Trump’s plan would also establish a temporary governing board that would be headed by Trump and include former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.

Trump says Israel would have the “full backing” of the United States to take steps to defeat Hamas if it doesn’t accept the proposed peace deal. “
