US EditionHamas reasserts control in a chaotic Gaza, posing a risk to the fragile ceasefire
Hamas has killed at least 33 members of armed groups to restore order and prevent chaos in Gaza following the ceasefire, as it faces pressure to disarm internationally.
- On Monday, October 13, Hamas deployed members of its Qassam Brigades in Gaza as it freed the last living hostages, gradually reasserting control since the October 10 ceasefire.

- Diplomats warn armed clans and gangs could complicate disarmament talks and hamper humanitarian aid distribution, risking collapse of Trump’s Gaza plan for a demilitarized Gaza with international oversight.
