US President Donald Trump has announced a groundbreaking agreement for the complete disarmament of Hamas, marking a significant step towards establishing a new Palestinian government in Gaza. The agreement, which includes provisions for the group's weapons and the gradual withdrawal of Israeli forces from the Gaza Strip, was reached with the mediation of Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey.

Details of the Agreement

Senior Hamas officials confirmed the agreement, stating that it addresses the group's weapons and the phased withdrawal of Israeli forces. A senior Hamas official noted, "An agreement has been reached regarding the issue of weapons...Furthermore, an agreement has been reached on a gradual withdrawal of (Israeli forces) from the strip."

Trump's Announcement and Next Steps

Trump announced the agreement on his Truth Social platform, emphasizing that disarmament would occur in "carefully structured phases." He added that as disarmament is completed, Israeli forces will withdraw, and the International Stabilization Force will work with a new Palestinian police force to ensure security in Gaza. Trump also thanked the mediators from Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey for their efforts.

Background and Context

The disarmament of Hamas has been a critical issue in the ongoing ceasefire between Israel and the group in Gaza, which has been in place since October. Despite the ceasefire, violence has continued, with recent Israeli strikes killing at least four people, including two children. The agreement is part of Trump's 20-point peace plan for Gaza, which includes the establishment of a technocratic government to manage the territory during its transitional phase.
