Ephrat Livni reports:
The proposal called for an immediate end to the war and the release of all remaining hostages in Gaza, living and dead, in exchange for Palestinian prisoners; a pullback of Israeli troops in Gaza; and an influx of aid into the enclave, which is in the grips of a severe humanitarian crisis. 
But there are elements of the plan, and of Mr. Trump’s long-term vision for the enclave, that Hamas has resisted in the past, and which may yet prove to be sticking points. [emphasis added]
The proposal calls for Hamas to disarm and to have no role in the governance of Gaza. These are conditions that Israel has long demanded and that Hamas has steadfastly rejected.
