Dear A.,


Earlier tonight, President Trump announced a historic agreement that will free the hostages, disarm Hamas, remove the terror group from power and end this war.


This is an extraordinary moment for America, Israel and the world.


For the past two years, our community has been at the forefront of the fight in Washington to ensure America stands with Israel. I want to thank you for your enduring commitment to our work together that enabled this deal to be realized.


According to reports, the deal will be signed tomorrow at noon, Israel time, and that hostages may start returning home as early as Saturday.


Tonight, we join the people of Israel in celebrating this breakthrough, eagerly awaiting the return of the hostages, and in mourning the loss of those killed on October 7 and in fighting to defend the Jewish state in this war.


Below is the statement from President Trump and from AIPAC.


Sincerely,
Jake Braunstein

Director of Policy Communications

AIPAC's Statement


This is an extraordinary moment for America, Israel and the world. The enduring partnership between the United States and our ally Israel over the past two years enabled this diplomatic breakthrough and a just conclusion to the terrible war Hamas started on October 7: freeing the hostages, disarming Hamas and removing the terror group from power in Gaza. This peace deal creates a tremendous opportunity to forge a better future for Israelis, Palestinians, and people across the Middle East.


AIPAC applauds President Trump and his negotiating team for this tremendous achievement and for working together with Israel to broker this peace plan. We deeply appreciate the moral clarity and steadfast support from the overwhelming majority of Congress, Republicans and Democrats alike, who stood with the Jewish state throughout this war and ensured Israel had the resources it needed to achieve its objectives against Hamas.


Hamas started this war on October 7 with one of the most barbaric assaults imaginable. Since then, the Iranian-backed terror group has proceeded to use Palestinians in Gaza as human shields for its maniacal war against the Jewish state, bringing terrible death, destruction and humanitarian crises to Gaza.


We celebrate this moment even as we mourn the innocent lives that have been lost because of Hamas’ savagery. Now, America and the world must be vigilant to ensure that Hamas adheres to the terms and implementation of the peace plan.


The horror of October 7 must never again be repeated. Tonight, our hearts are with the hostage families who have endured so much over the past 733 days, the heroes who fought so valiantly to defend their nation over the past two years, and all the people of Israel.
