Trump says 'Board of Peace' reaches Gaza disarmament deal
The phased plan also calls for a new Palestinian administration, an international security force and reconstruction after months of stalled negotiations.
- On Thursday, President Donald Trump announced a "historic" agreement for the complete disarmament of Hamas in Gaza, brokered by his Board of Peace to facilitate phased Israeli withdrawal and transition to a new Palestinian government.
- Intensive negotiations in Cairo with mediators from Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey produced the accord, anchoring phased disarmament in the administration's 20-point peace plan to restore civilian governance in Gaza.
- Implementation requires the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza to assume day-to-day governance, while an International Stabilization Force secures territory during gradual handover of weapons and tunnels.
- Israeli officials have not confirmed the deal, expressing skepticism, while Hamas sources signaled willingness to "confine and store" heavy weapons under Palestinian supervision rather than fully disarm.
- Board of Peace officials estimate disarmament could take between 200 and 350 days, though success remains contingent on resolving gaps between administration assessments and operational realities on the ground.
