After Trump issued an ultimatum to Hamas, requiring a response by Sunday evening, Hamas responded on Friday afternoon in the Eastern Time Zone, summarizing mainly three points:

First, thanking Trump for his efforts to end the war

Second, agreeing to release all hostages and transfer the administration of Gaza to a Palestinian authority

Third, being ready to enter negotiations to discuss the specific details of the agreement.

Subsequently, Trump responded by saying that according to Hamas' recent statement, I believe they are ready to welcome a lasting peace. Israel must immediately stop bombing Gaza, so we can safely and quickly free the hostages! It is too dangerous to do this now. We are already discussing the details. This is not just about Gaza, but about the long-awaited peace in the Middle East.
