CAIRO (AP) — Much remains unknown about U.S. President Donald Trump’s 21-point peace plan for Gaza. But one difference stands out from previous ceasefire proposals: For the first time, it tries to outline the key question of how the territory will be ruled after the war .
There are provisions that could be rejected by either Israel or Hamas. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is meeting Trump at the White House on Monday to discuss the plan.
For Hamas, the plan means surrender. Not only would the militant group no longer govern Gaza – a concession it has said it is willing to make. It also would have to disarm, something it has so far rejected.
For Israel, it would mean not having direct security control over the Gaza Strip, which Netanyahu has said Israel wants to maintain.
