After two years of war, a breakthrough is within reach. Negotiators in Egypt have been working through President Trump’s 20-point plan — a framework that could end the fighting, free the remaining 48 Israeli hostages, and set the stage for rebuilding Gaza.
To break down the key points and what it would take for any agreement to lead to real and lasting peace, retired Lt. Colonel Jonathan Conricus shares his insight on Israel’s red lines, Hamas’s calculus, and the challenges that could determine whether this moment ends in peace or another cycle of conflict.
