On the evening of October 3, the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) issued a statement saying it was willing to accept parts of the previously proposed U.S. "20-point plan" to end the conflict in Gaza and rebuild Gaza, and is ready to start negotiations on other subjects.

With regard to the "20-point plan" proposed by the United States, some Palestinians in the Gaza Strip said they were looking forward to a deal and a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.

Palestinian resident Ali Aboud Rabah:We want a permanent ceasefire because our homes are destroyed and children are killed, we don't want to repeat the same mistakes, we want a permanent end to the war, we want stability and peace.

Palestinian resident Sharif:Soon after we started implementing the ceasefire, they added a new clause to the agreement, saying we didn¡¯t implement the agreement, one said we would abide by the agreement, hand over the detainees, and the other would still abide by the agreement after they were released? some Arab countries as guarantors of the agreement, but will the Israeli military abide by the agreement? that means the Israeli military will gradually withdraw, build the Gaza Strip, open the Rafah Transit, hand over power to the Palestinians, but will they abide by the agreement?
