After tense negotiations the last few months, it appears peace in the Middle East is near reality. President Trump confirmed on Wednesday evening that Israel and Hamas have signed off on phase one of his peace plan.
The President said such while having a roundtable to discuss ANTIFA, where he was handed a note by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, which read "very close."
Trump later posted on Truth Social, "ALL of the Hostages will be released very soon, and Israel will withdraw their Troops to an agreed upon line as the first steps toward a Strong, Durable, and Everlasting Peace."
Phase one of the deal is the exchange of Israeli hostages being held by Hamas for Palestinian prisoners being held by Israel.
President Trump may also be traveling to Egypt to take part in the peace deal.
