President Donald Trump says his "Board of Peace" has reached a deal for the complete disarmament of Hamas and other armed groups in Gaza. The agreement calls for a phased Israeli withdrawal alongside an international force securing the territory, even as Cairo talks continue and Israeli strikes killed at least six Palestinians the same day.
U.S. President Donald Trump said Thursday that his self-styled "Board of Peace" reached an agreement for the complete disarmament of Hamas and other armed groups in Gaza. In a post on Truth Social, he called it a milestone in the implementation of his 20-Point Plan to end Israel's war in the enclave.
Trump said the disarmament would proceed in phases, with Israeli forces withdrawing as the process advances. An International Stabilization Force would work alongside a new Palestinian police force to secure Gaza, he added. According to Reuters: "At the same time, Israel will have the security it deserves," Trump wrote.
He thanked mediators Egypt, Qatar and Turkey for their role in reaching the agreement. The deal, he said, is meant to pave the way for Gaza to be governed by a new Palestinian government working with the Board of Peace.
Earlier the same day, talks between mediators and Hamas leaders in Cairo on implementing the U.S.-brokered plan made rare progress, though an Israeli official said the proposed terms were not satisfactory. Meanwhile, Israeli strikes killed at least six Palestinians in Gaza, including two children, medics said.
