Hussein al-Sheikh, vice-president of the Palestinian Authority (PA), says he welcomes Trump's "announcement of the cessation of the war, and the positive statements of Hamas".
In a post on X, he also says the PA is ready to work towards the ceasefire, the release of hostages and prisoners, the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza, "the complete Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip, and the transition to a political path on the basis of the two-state solution".
There is still some way to go, though, before any or all of these will happen, because while Hamas has said it agrees to the peace plan in principle, the group wants changes to it, and certain conditions to be met.
The Palestinian Ministry of Health - Gaza says at least 66 people were killed by Israeli aggression in the last 24 hours, raising the death toll in the Strip since 7 October to 67,074.
The Hamas-run health ministry says another 265 injured people have arrived at hospitals in the Gaza Strip in the same time frame.
A number of people remain under rubble, with help currently unable to reach them, the ministry statement adds.
