U.S. President Trump stated that hostages will be released on October 13 in accordance with the agreement reached between Israel and Hamas. He mentioned that he told Prime Minister Netanyahu that Israel cannot fight the whole world and announced that Gaza will be rebuilt. Trump said, "Other countries in the region will also help with this reconstruction process because they have immense wealth."
After U.S. President Donald Trump announced that "Israel and Hamas have approved the first phase of the Peace Plan," he connected to a Fox News broadcast to make new statements regarding the process.
"THE WORLD CAME TOGETHER FOR THIS AGREEMENT"
Trump, recalling that not only the U.S. administration but also many countries have made efforts to reach an agreement, said, "To be frank, the whole world came together for this agreement. So many countries participated in this process that you wouldn't even think of. The world united around this agreement, and I can say that without this, something like this would not have happened."
"I BELIEVE IRAN WILL ALSO BE INCLUDED IN THE PEACE PROCESS"
Claiming that many factors, including the tariffs imposed by the U.S. and attacks on Iran's nuclear facilities, made this agreement possible, Trump stated, "This happened as a result of a combination of conditions. For example, eliminating Iran's nuclear potential, its nuclear power. Many different, extraordinary events occurred. I can say that talent played a significant role in this. But there was also a bit of luck. You know, a little luck is needed too." Reiterating that preventing Iran from having nuclear weapons facilitated the agreement, Trump said, "If I had allowed that to happen, this agreement would not have been possible. Or even if it were possible, it would have a huge shadow over it; because there would clearly be a hostile country with nuclear weapons."
Trump noted that Iran welcomed the agreement reached, saying, "By the way, I believe Iran will also be included in the peace process."
"I CAN'T BELIEVE EVERYONE LOVES ME NOW"
Trump, who said he spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently, stated, "He called and said, referring to himself, 'I can't believe it, now everyone loves me.' I replied, 'More importantly, people love Israel again,' and that's really true. I told him, 'Israel cannot fight the world, Bibi, it cannot fight the world.' And he understands that very well. It's really incredible that everything has come together this way," he expressed.
"GAZA WILL BE REBUILT"
Expressing that the agreement reached will bring peace not only to Gaza but to the entire Middle East, Trump said, "This is a magnificent day. A great day for the world. A great day for everyone." He stated that Gaza will be rebuilt and become a safer place, saying, "You will see that people will get along well with each other. We believe Gaza will be a much safer place. It will be rebuilt. Other countries in the region will also help in this rebuilding process because they have tremendous wealth and they want this to happen." Reiterating his belief that peace will prevail in the Middle East, including Gaza, Trump said, "People will be taken care of. It will be a different world. I think the Middle East really came together."
"I TOLD NETANYAHU HE CAN'T FIGHT THE WHOLE WORLD"
Emphasizing that the release of hostages is a "very important" development, Trump provided the information that "the hostages will likely be released on October 13." He recounted that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently called him and said he "couldn't believe it," adding, "I told him (Netanyahu) that Israel can't fight the whole world. He knows that very well."
NETANYAHU CONFIRMED
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed the agreement with Hamas in a post in Hebrew on the social media platform X, stating, "A great day for Israel. Tomorrow, I will gather the government to approve the agreement and we will bring all our precious hostages back home." Thanking the Israeli army and Trump, Netanyahu said, "With God's help, we will continue to achieve all our goals together and expand peace with our neighbors."
"I THANK PRESIDENT TRUMP"
Later, in a separate post in English, Netanyahu reiterated that with the approval of the first phase of the plan, all hostages will be brought back to the country, stating, "This is a diplomatic success for the State of Israel and a national and spiritual victory." Netanyahu, who has shown a determined stance since the beginning of the process to "bring all hostages back home" and "achieve Israel's goals," said, "Thanks to our unwavering determination, our strong military operation, and the efforts of our great friend and ally President Trump, we have reached this critical milestone." Netanyahu expressed his gratitude to President Trump for his leadership, partnership, and unwavering commitment to Israel's security and the release of our hostages.
