(Reuters) -Donald Trump has called for Israel to halt its bombing of Gaza after Hamas said it was ready to release hostages and agreed to some aspects of the U.S. president’s plan to end the war, although Israeli strikes still killed several people on Saturday.

Here are some reactions from around the world to Hamas’s comments and Trump’s reaction:

EUROPEAN COMMISSION PRESIDENT URSULA VON DER LEYEN

“Hamas’ stated readiness to release hostages and engage on the basis of the recent @POTUS proposal is encouraging. This moment must be seized. An immediate ceasefire in Gaza and the release of all hostages are within reach. Europe will support all efforts aiming to end the suffering of civilians, and to promote the only viable solution for peace, the two-state solution,” she wrote on X.
