A new draft proposal crafted by U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff outlines a two-stage deal in which Hamas would return ten live hostages and eighteen bodies within a one-week window. Al Arabiya reports that the framework calls for a 60-day pause in fighting, during which President Donald Trump would personally guarantee that Israel upholds the terms of the ceasefire.
According to the details of the initiative, the truce would begin with the release of five hostages and nine sets of remains on its first day, with the remaining individuals and bodies transferred on day seven. Humanitarian assistance to Gaza would be launched immediately following Hamas’s acceptance of the agreement, channeled through coordinated efforts with the United Nations and the Red Crescent.

The levayah for infant Ravid Chaim Gez, who passed away two weeks after his mother, Tze’ela, was killed in a terror attack near the town of Bruchin, is taking place today at the Har Hamenuchos cemetery in Yerushalayim.
Chananel Gez, who lost both his wife and son and was himself injured in the shooting, stood at his son’s graveside and spoke through deep pain. “My dear Ravid Chaim, I stand here with a heart broken twice. What can one say? There is nothing to say. I was privileged to see Ravid Chaim yesterday in the NICU—he was so sweet. He opened his eyes for a few seconds, and he looked like an angel.”

President Donald Trump issued a series of pardons on Wednesday, awarding them to a former New York congressman, a Connecticut governor, a rapper known as “NBA YoungBoy,” a labor union leader and a onetime Army officer who flouted safety measures during the coronavirus pandemic. Trump’s actions mixed his willingness to pardon prominent Republicans and other supporters, donors and friends with the influence of Alice Marie Johnson, whom Trump recently named his pardon czar after he offered her a pardon in 2020. He commuted the sentence of Larry Hoover, a former Chicago gang leader serving a life sentence at a supermax prison in Colorado.
