The proposal outlines political, humanitarian, and economic measures designed to bring stability to the region and open a path toward Palestinian self-determination.

20-point Gaza peace plan:

·        Gaza would become a non-extremist, terror-free area without any danger to its neighbors.

·        The land would be rebuilt for the good of its people, who have suffered for so many years.

·        If the proposal is accepted by both sides, the war would break out at once. Israeli troops would retreat to a set line as part of preparations for the release of hostages. Throughout this time, all military action — including air and artillery shelling — would be suspended, and the front would be stable until the time is ripe for a total phased pullout.

·        All the hostages, alive or dead, would be released within 72 hours of Israeli public consensus.

·        After the hostages are released, Israel would release 250 lifers and 1,700 Gazans arrested on October 7, 2023, including all women and children. For every Israeli hostage, Israel would release the bodies of 15 dead Palestinians.

·        The members of Hamas who were willing to put down their arms and live in peace would be given amnesty. Members who wanted to depart from Gaza would be given safe passage.

·        Full humanitarian assistance would be delivered to Gaza immediately upon approval of the deal. This includes the equipment to rebuild such infrastructure as water, electricity, and sewage systems; rehabilitate hospitals and bakeries; remove debris; and reopen roads.

·        The distribution and delivery of the aid would be taken care of by the United Nations, the Red Crescent, and other neutral international bodies, without obstruction. Rafah Crossing would operate according to the January 19, 2025 accord.

·        Gaza would be governed in the short term by a technical, apolitical Palestinian committee, dealing with public utilities and municipal affairs. The committee would consist of qualified Palestinian and international specialists and would be under the auspices of a new international temporary body — the "Peace Board" — under the chairmanship of Donald J. Trump. Additional members and heads of state would be appointed later, such as former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair. The organization would oversee Gaza s development and finance until the completion of reforms by the Palestinian Authority.

·        With Trump s economic development strategy, Gaza would be rebuilt and its economy boosted by a committee of specialists, generating investment and employment opportunities.

·        There will be a special economic zone with preferential tariffs and access rates to be negotiated with partner countries.

·        No resident would be evicted from Gaza, and those who leave will always have the right to return.

·        Hamas and other armed militants would have no role to play in the governance of Gaza. All terrorist, military, and offensive infrastructure — tunnel and weaponry factories included — would be dismantled. The weapons would be rendered inoperable under the oversight of impartial monitors to guarantee the demilitarization of Gaza.

·        Regional partners would ensure Hamas and other militants live up to their responsibilities and Gaza is no longer a threat to its neighbors or its own citizens.

·        America, Arab and world allies, would deploy an International Security Assistance Force (ISAF). The ISAF would move into Gaza immediately, train and support Palestinian police, and draw on the lessons of Egypt and Jordan.

·        Israel would not occupy or annex Gaza. In the wake of the ISAF deployment, Israeli troops would withdraw in phases, holding security perimeters until Gaza becomes stable.

·        If Hamas postpones or rejects the plan, relief operations would proceed in terror-free zones.

·        Interfaith dialogue would be initiated to encourage peace and coexistence among Palestinians and Israelis.

·        Once the reconstruction of Gaza and Palestinian Authority reform are finished, a viable path toward Palestinian self-determination and statehood would be initiated.

·        The United States would provide a political horizon for Israeli-Palestinian dialogue, enabling peaceful and prosperous coexistence.

Trump also addressed the possibility that Hamas might reject the proposal, stressing both US support for Israel and the need to confront the group directly.

“And, if Hamas rejects the deal, which is always possible… as you know, Bibi, you’d have our full backing to do what you would have to do,” Trump said, using Netanyahu’s nickname.

A notable point is that Hamas has not agreed yet to this plan. This is actually a green light for intensified Israeli action in Gaza if Hamas does not accept this 20-point plan.
