After Gaza peace talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Washington DC, US President Donald Trump says a deal is “beyond very close”
-
A Palestinian source familiar with negotiations tells the BBC that Hamas officials in Doha have just been informed of the proposal released by the White House
-
If Hamas rejects the plan or doesn’t follow through, Netanyahu says Israel “will finish the job”. Trump says Netanyahu will have full US backing to “do what he has to do” if Hamas does not agree to the plan
-
What does the 20-point plan say? The scheme proposes an end to military operations, a release of Israeli hostages by Hamas and the immediate delivery of aid to Gaza
-
The proposals says Hamas will have no role in governing Gaza, and leaves the door open for an eventual Palestinian state
-
The plan also includes a “board of peace” to oversee the proposal’s implementation, led by Trump, who says former British Prime Minister Tony Blair also wants to participate

Netanyahu may try to sell this plan in Israel not as a done deal, but as a test for Hamas, writes our correspondent John Sudworth from Jerusalem
