Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu suggested Sunday he would offer Hamas immunity if it releases all remaining hostages and leaves the Gaza Strip.

“If Hamas leaders, for example, are escorted out of the country, yeah, if they finish the war, release all the hostages, we’ll let them out,” Netanyahu, 75, told Fox News’ “The Sunday Briefing.”

“All of that, I think, is part of the plan. I’m not going to preempt it, because we’re having these discussions exactly right now,” he added.

Netanyahu’s comments came after it was reported that Trump would be willing to grant Hamas leaders safe passage out of Gaza if the remaining 48 hostages held in the territory are released within 48 hours of Israel publicly accepting a cease-fire deal.

Trump, 79, and Netanyahu met at the White House Monday to discuss the future of Israel’s war against Hamas.

Under the terms of the deal floated by the Trump administration, Hamas members who commit to “peaceful coexistence” will be granted amnesty while members who wish to leave the Strip will be granted safe passage to receiving countries, according to the Times of Israel.

Israel would also free several hundred Palestinian prisoners currently serving life sentences, as well as more than 1,000 Gazans arrested since the start of the war, along with the bodies of several hundred Palestinians.Further, the Jewish state would agree not to carry out any further strikes in Qatar, as recognition of the Gulf emirate’s “important mediating role in the Gaza conflict.

“Hamas will also be excluded from the governance of Gaza, with the US working with Arab and other international partners to “develop a temporary international stabilization force that will immediately deploy in Gaza to oversee security in the Strip.”

“These things, again, will be worked out because our goal was Hamas, not anything beyond it. I think we can work out an understanding on this,” Netanyahu said Sunday.

Netanyahu had previously maintained that only the complete crushing of Hamas, including its leadership, would bring an end to the war in Gaza, which will mark its second anniversary next week.

But under the US-proposed plan, Israel will agree to halting all IDF (Israel Defense Forces) operations and gradually withdrawing from the Gaza Strip, something Netanyahu has directly opposed for the past two years.President Trump’s plan also calls for the shattered Gaza Strip to be de-radicalized and redeveloped for the benefit of its people.

“No one will be forced to leave Gaza, but those who choose to leave will be allowed to return,” the plan states. “Moreover, Gazans will be encouraged to remain in the Strip and offered an opportunity to build a better future there.”

“We’re working with President Trump’s team, actually, as we speak, and I hope we can make it a go because we want to free our hostages, we want to get rid of Hamas rule and have them disarmed, Gaza demilitarized and a new future set up for Gazans and Israelis alike,” the prime minister told co-host Jacqui Heinrich.
