Trump says Hamas must give up weapons or be 'blown away'

  • At the World Economic Forum in Davos, Mr. Trump said he would set a deadline in the next few days and expects clarity within three weeks on whether Hamas will surrender arms or be `blown away`.
  • Last Thursday the U.S.-led Board of Peace was formally established and drafted a three to five month timeline for Gaza's demilitarization, envisioning a technocratic authority and an International Stabilization Force.
  • Hamas has offered mixed messages about disarming since the ceasefire, with Basem Naim saying it would begin laying down heavy weapons under a long-term ceasefire, and U.S. officials calling demilitarization a "real possibility."
  • If Hamas refuses, officials warn of serious consequences including a renewed IDF ground campaign, while Israel links further withdrawals to disarmament and prioritizes returning Master Sgt. Ran Gvili, the final slain hostage.
  • The board's broader charter has drawn international criticism, including objections to some invitations, as its remit beyond Gaza and a one billion dollar fee for permanent membership raise legitimacy concerns.
