The US president has hailed an agreement between Hamas and Israel on a first phase of a ceasefire agreement, saying his administration “ended the war”.
The statement comes despite the Israeli government not yet approving the deal, surrounding which several questions remain.
“As you know, last night, we reached a momentous breakthrough in the Middle East, something that people said was never going to be done,” Trump said at a cabinet meeting.
“We ended the war and… on a much bigger basis, created peace, and I think it’s going to be a lasting peace, hopefully an everlasting peace,” he said.
He added captives should be released “Monday or Tuesday”.
