The United States is announcing the launch of phase two of President Donald Trump’s 20-point plan to end Gaza conflict, White House envoy Steve Witkoff said Wednesday.
"We are announcing the launch of Phase Two of the President's 20-Point Plan to End the Gaza Conflict, moving from cease-fire to demilitarization, technocratic governance, and reconstruction," Witkoff wrote on X as a committee was formed on Gaza governance.
He said the U.S. expects Hamas to fully comply with its obligations under the agreement, including "the immediate return of the final deceased hostage."
"Failure to do so will bring serious consequences," Witkoff added.
Witkoff also thanked Türkiye, Egypt and Qatar "for their indispensable mediation efforts that made all progress to date possible."
