Washington expressed satisfaction on Tuesday with the return of the remains of the last Israeli hostage from the Gaza Strip, noting that this paves the way for the second phase of President Donald Trump's plan. U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff stated that resolving the hostage issue paves the way for a new future based on peace, not war, and affirmed that Trump is committed to achieving peace in the region. France, for its part, called for the implementation of the second phase of the Gaza plan after the return of the last body. News reports revealed that the Hamas movement requested the inclusion of 10,000 of its members in the new administration of Gaza. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu emphasized that Israel is focused on disarming the Hamas movement and disarming Gaza in general, stating that Israel will not allow a Palestinian state to be established in Gaza and will maintain security control over the sector.
