India welcomes US President Donald Trump’s leadership as peace efforts in Gaza make decisive progress, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Saturday. Modi referred to the indications of the release of Israeli hostages by Hamas and said it marks a significant step forward in efforts to restore peace in the region.
He stated on X, “India will continue to strongly support all efforts towards a durable and just peace.”
Trump has ordered Israel to stop bombing the Gaza Strip after Hamas said it had accepted some elements of his plan to end the nearly two-year war and return all the remaining hostages taken in the October 7, 2023 attack.
Hamas announced its willingness to release the hostages and hand over power to other Palestinian factions. However, the group noted that other aspects of the plan require further consultations among Palestinians.
