Trump says deal has been reached for ‘complete disarmament’ of Hamas

  • President Donald Trump announced a "historic" framework deal for Gaza's reconstruction and governance, which he detailed on Truth Social.
  • The agreement reportedly includes the complete disarmament of Hamas and all other armed groups in Gaza, with security control transferring to an international stabilization force and a new Palestinian police force.
  • Hamas, through mediators, has agreed to the terms, with a member stating they will disarm if Israel upholds its obligations and does not interfere with the disarmament process.
  • An unnamed Israeli official, however, indicated that Gaza was not extensively discussed during Prime Minister Netanyahu's recent visit to Washington and that Israel would not fully withdraw until Hamas is disarmed and the Strip demilitarized.
  • The Trump-led Board of Peace has secured billions in pledges for Gaza's rebuilding, with funds to be released once the disarmament and transition deal is underway, potentially within 365 days.
