President Donald Trump on Monday thanked Israel’s leader for agreeing to a peace plan that would end the war in Gaza and said he himself was hopeful Hamas would accept it as well.

“I also want to thank Prime Minister [Benjamin] Netanyahu for agreeing to the plan and for trusting that if we work together, we can bring an end to the death and destruction that we’ve seen for so many years,” Trump said at a press conference with Netanyahu.

“I hope that we’re going to have a deal for peace, and if Hamas rejects the deal, which is always possible, they’re the only one left, everyone else has accepted it, but I have a feeling that we’re going to have a positive answer.”
