Fact-Checking President Trump's Claims
President Donald Trump's address in Israel sparked controversy, with several statements going beyond the evidence.
Trump framed the agreement he helped broker as a "historic dawn of a new Middle East."
"This is not only the end of a war, this is the end of an age of terror and death and the beginning of the age of faith and hope and of God."
His Oct. 13 address focused on his administration's efforts to produce an agreement between Israel and Hamas.
- Gaza ceasefire
- Release of 20 Israeli hostages
- Release of 250 Palestinian prisoners
- Release of about 1,700 Palestinian detainees held without charges
The future phases of the 20-point plan are complicated and uncertain.
