US has mapped out a comprehensive 21-point proposal aimed at charting a postwar cause for Gaza.

This was one of the outcomes of a strategic ceasefire meeting between President Donald Trump and Israeli PM, Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House today, though the decision is facing growing opposition from key regional stakeholders, dimming hopes for a swift resolution to the conflict.

The plan outlines a phased roadmap including a ceasefire, the exchange of hostages and prisoners, withdrawal of Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), and the deployment of an international stabilization force.

It also envisions a reformed Palestinian Authority (PA) assuming governance responsibilities in Gaza, underpinned by long-term reconstruction and regional cooperation.

Despite support from Washington, the proposal has drawn skepticism across the political spectrum.

Israeli officials remain wary of international forces operating in Gaza and oppose any perceived empowerment of the PA without firm security guarantees.

Meanwhile, Hamas has rejected conditions tied to its disarmament or exclusion from political processes, while some Arab nations are also hesitant to commit troops or resources without broader political concessions.

Diplomats warned that without consensus, the initiative could falter, leaving Gaza in prolonged instability and undermining efforts to secure a sustainable peace in the region.
