On October 4, local time, a senior Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) official revealed that Hamas was ready to immediately negotiate a ceasefire in Gaza to settle all unresolved issues.
On the evening of October 3, local time, Hamas issued a statement announcing that it would submit a response to Trump's "20-point plan" to the mediator, and expressed its willingness to negotiate through the mediator to implement the relevant plan. The statement said that the organization agreed to release all Israeli hostages and hand over the remains of the victims according to Trump's proposal, provided that the necessary conditions for the exchange are met. Against this background, Hamas is willing to negotiate immediately through mediators to discuss the specific details of this process.
After Hamas issued this statement, the Israeli Prime Minister's Office issued a statement in the early morning of the 4th local time, saying that after Hamas responded, Israel was ready to immediately launch the first phase of the "20-point plan", that is, to release all detainees.
According to the White House documents, the “20 Points Plan” requires Hamas to release all detainees within 72 hours of Israel’s public acceptance of the plan; Israel to allow international humanitarian aid to enter Gaza after all hostages have been released; Gaza to be temporarily managed by a committee of technical experts under international supervision; Gaza to start the de-militarization process, Hamas to deposit arms and not participate in the governance of Gaza; Israel to set up a buffer zone and phased withdrawal of troops in Gaza.
