The Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas is reported to be satisfied with the proposal for a ceasefire, and will announce a decision on the agreement by Friday at the latest, according to a source that the London-based, Saudi-owned newspaper Asharq al-Awsat has spoken to. The information is cited by several Israeli media outlets.

US President Donald Trump claimed on Tuesday that Israel is agreeing to the terms for a 60-day ceasefire. And on Wednesday, the terror-listed Hamas said they are ready for a ceasefire, but without accepting Donald Trump's proposal, while expressing the importance of a permanent end to the war in Gaza.

According to the source, Trump will announce the agreement when both parties have approved it.

On Monday, Israel's Prime Minister will travel to the US to meet Trump.
