Qatar PM: Gaza at 'Critical Moment' as Trump Peace Plan's First Phase Ends

  • Qatar's PM stated the Gaza ceasefire is at a "critical moment" as its first phase concludes, with one Israeli hostage still held.
  • The PM clarified the current situation is a "pause," not a full ceasefire, which would require Israeli withdrawal and stability in Gaza.
  • The first phase of Trump's 20-point peace plan involved a halt in fighting and an exchange of hostages for Palestinian prisoners.
  • Trump's plan proposes an interim technocratic Palestinian government in Gaza, overseen by an international "board of peace" and security force.
  • Israeli soldiers killed three militants who crossed into Israeli-controlled northern Gaza, posing an "immediate threat."

Why It Matters: Gaza's fragile peace plan could collapse, reigniting conflict in the region.
