Trump Brokered Ceasefire Ends 2--Year Gaza Conflict

 This week, the first phase in the U.S.--brokered ceasefire plan saw the return of 20 israei hostages from Gaza and almost 2,000 Palestinian prisoners released by Israel, the USA Today website reports today (Oct. 14, 2025).


Some former U.S. leaders did respond to the Trump administration's plan for the region. Four days before the hostage release, Obama said "We should be enouraged and relieved that an end to the conflict is within sight, without naming Trump himself.


Democratic Sn. John Osoff of Georgia released a statement on Oct. 13, saying the ceasefire and release of the hostages have sparked hope for "an enduring peace in Gaza," adding he commends the "efforts of the Trump Administration and international partners to achieve this moment."
