US President Donald Trump on Friday, September 26, 2025, expressed optimism about negotiations to end the nearly two-year war between Israel and the terrorist group Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
Speaking to reporters at the White House before departing for the Ryder Cup, Trump stated:
“It seems we have reached an agreement on Gaza, and we will notify you.”
In his comment, Trump noted:
“This will be an agreement that returns the hostages. It will end the war. It will be peace.”
It is worth recalling that on September 6, Israeli military urged Palestinians in the northern part of Gaza City to evacuate to the south of the enclave. The Israel Defense Forces are advancing on the outskirts of Gaza as part of plans to capture this territory.
