Kushner, Netanyahu agree on path forward for Gaza, Board of Peace official says
The plan would keep Israeli forces in place until Hamas hands over weapons and tunnels are destroyed, with U.S. oversight verifying compliance.
- On Monday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US envoy Jared Kushner finalized an agreement with the Board of Peace stipulating that Israeli forces will not redeploy from Gaza until Hamas commits to "Fully disarm."
- This understanding advances President Trump's 20-point Gaza peace plan, managed by the US-led Board of Peace, which includes roughly 40 countries and was established under a broader Gaza "Ceasefire" reached in late 2025.
- Two joint working groups will address security and humanitarian needs like sanitation; during the initial phase, Hamas must hand weapons directly to US General Jasper Jeffers for destruction.
- Peace Director-General Nickolay Mladenov warned that dismantling the extensive tunnel network could take 10 years, while sanitation has become an immediate priority as at least 1,260 Palestinians have been killed since the ceasefire.
- The Board aims for a "fully demilitarized and deradicalized Gaza" that no longer poses a threat to Israel, an official said, focusing on translating the roadmap's obligations into concrete, verifiable steps.
