US EditionBoard of Peace Aims to Disarm Hamas over Eight Months
The proposal involves phased disarmament verified by a weapons committee and transfer of security to Palestinian technocrats, aiming to facilitate reconstruction and Israeli withdrawal.
- President Donald Trump's "Board of Peace" proposed an eight-month, five-stage disarmament plan for Gaza, aiming to establish "one authority, one law, and one weapon" under a US-backed National Committee.
- The initiative follows The October ceasefire that halted two years of war, with Hamas's disarmament identified as a critical sticking point for cementing peace and enabling reconstruction.
- Under the timeline, the National Committee would assume security control of Gaza, with Hamas required to destroy its tunnel network and surrender heavy weapons before day 90.
- While a Hamas official said the group is studying the document, Palestinian factions on Thursday criticized the proposal, arguing it unfairly prioritizes disarmament over reconstruction and requires "political surrender."
- Israeli withdrawal is conditional on "verification that Gaza is free of weaponry," with disarmament overseen by a committee established by Peace Director General Nickolay Mladenov.
