The U.S. President said Israel “agreed to the necessary conditions to finalize” a 60-day ceasefire, “during which time we will work with all parties to end the war.”

The Washington Post reports U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff told the families of Israeli hostages in Gaza that there is a plan to bring the hostages home and end the war. MSNBC foreign affairs analyst and former Special Assistant to President Obama Dennis Ross joins Erielle Reshef to discuss this news and explain why President Trump himself may hold the key to negotiating the end of the war.

The proposal reportedly includes a demand that Hamas disarms and released all hostages immediately, and threatens the US giving permission to the IDF to operate freely if Hamas declines. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump are conducting advanced negotiations on a new comprehensive hostage and ceasefire proposal,
