Qatar, Saudi, Egypt join call for Hamas to disarm, give up Gaza rule
GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE, JUL 31 – Arab League and 17 countries demand Hamas disarm and transfer Gaza control to Palestinian Authority to end war and revive stalled two-state solution, Saudi Arabia offers $10 billion aid.
- On July 28, 2025, a coalition of Middle Eastern countries such as Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt, together with other nations, issued a joint demand for Hamas to disarm and transfer authority over Gaza during a conference held at the United Nations in New York, which was organized by France and Saudi Arabia.
