Donald Trump announced on Friday that the Board of Peace has reached a historic agreement for the complete disarmament of Hamas and all other armed groups in the Gaza Strip. The agreement, mediated by Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey, marks a significant step toward lasting peace and security in the region, according to Trump's statement on Truth Social.

The agreement outlines a phased process where Israeli forces will withdraw from Gaza as the disarmament of Hamas and other armed groups is completed. Trump emphasized that this is a monumental step toward lasting peace and security. The deal also includes the establishment of a new Palestinian government that will work with the Board of Peace to ensure security and stability in Gaza.

Hamas has confirmed the agreement, with a senior official stating that the group will only disarm if Israel fulfills its commitments. The official also mentioned that the disarmament process will be carried out without Israeli involvement. However, Israeli officials remain skeptical about the agreement and the disarmament of Hamas.

The agreement was reached after months of negotiations involving mediators from Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey. The Board of Peace, initiated by the United States, played a central role in brokering the deal. The process is expected to begin in the coming weeks, with a timetable for the withdrawal of Israeli forces still being finalized.

The deal also includes the establishment of an international stabilization force that will help train a new Palestinian police force and assist with weapons collection. The goal is to ensure that Gaza has one government, one legal system, and one legitimate security authority.

The agreement comes at a time when the humanitarian situation in Gaza remains dire, with most of its 2 million residents living in tents or makeshift shelters. The conflict has resulted in significant loss of life and destruction in Gaza.

In related news, a Russian missile struck a village in eastern Ukraine, killing six members of a single family. Ukrainian drones also struck two warehouses belonging to Russian online retailer Wildberries, sparking fires at both sites. The Russian government extended its bans on the export of diesel and gasoline until January 31, 2027, following repeated Ukrainian drone attacks on oil refineries that triggered fuel shortages and price spikes.

Trump: Avtal klart Historisk överenskommelse om avväpning av Hamas

expressen · 2 months ago

Trump touts "historic" agreement to disarm Hamas, rebuild Gaza President Trump announced Thursday that his Board of Peace had reached an agreement with Hamas to disarm and transfer civilian and security control of Gaza to a new Palestinian technocratic government.Why it matters: If implemented, the agreement would represent a dramatic breakthrough in Trumps 20-point Gaza peace plan and clear the way for reconstruction of the devastated enclave.But the deal requires Hamas and Israel to complete a complicated series of reciprocal and independently verified steps over roughly seven to eight months.Israeli officials remain deeply skeptical that Hamas will surrender its weapons, while comments from a senior Hamas official suggest the sequencing of disarmament and Israels withdrawal could still be contested.What theyre saying: "Today, the Board of Peace reached a HISTORIC agreement for the COMPLETE DISARMAMENT of Hamas and all other armed groups in Gaza," Trump wrote Thursday evening on Truth Social."This is a monumental step toward lasting PEACE and SECURITY," he added.State of play: Two U.S. officials said Hamas had agreed to the terms of the deal after months of what one senior administration official described as "very delicate" negotiations with mediators Qatar, Turkey and Egypt.Implementation is expected to begin in the coming weeks, the senior U.S. official said.A Board of Peace official said this is the first time Hamas and the other Palestinian factions in Gaza have agreed to demilitarize the enclave and transfer responsibility for security and civilian services to a technocratic government.Under the agreement, Hamas would relinquish any role in governing Gaza. The new National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG) would serve as an alternative to Hamas and the Palestinian Authority."It will work for the people of Gaza," the senior U.S. official said.Reality check: Hamas official Ghazi Hamad confirmed to Al Jazeera that "difficult" negotiations had produced an agreement, but his description raised immediate questions about its implementation."We will not take any steps regarding disarmament before Israel withdraws from the Gaza Strip," Hamad said. He added that the NCAG would carry out disarmament without Israeli involvement.That appears to differ from Trumps description of a "carefully structured" and phased process in which Israeli forces withdraw as disarmament is completed.U.S. and Board of Peace officials said implementation would proceed through reciprocal, independently verified steps, while acknowledging that the timetable for Israels withdrawal is still being finalized.Zoom in: The agreement is based on the principle that Gaza will have one government, one legal system and one legitimate security authority. The demilitarization process is expected to take between 200 and 250 days and to proceed through one part of Gaza at a time.Hamas civilian police would first transfer their weapons to a new Palestinian police force under the technocratic government.Hamas heavy weapons would then be decommissioned and placed in secure storage, while its tunnels and weapons factories would be dismantled.Small arms would be collected in accordance with Palestinian law.All other militias in Gaza, including anti-Hamas factions armed by Israel during the war, would also be required to surrender their weapons.The NCAG would assume authority over each area only after a monitoring mechanism verified that the relevant commitments had been fulfilled.At the end of the process, the technocratic government and its police force would have a monopoly on weapons in Gaza, the Board of Peace official said.How it works: Under the agreement, an international stabilization force would help train the new Palestinian police, assist with weapons collection, and deploy between Palestinian-controlled areas and Israeli forces.A Board of Peace official said the agreement was designed around "zero trust" because Hamas and Israel each made clear from the outset that they did not trust the other side.The process would not advance from one stage to the next until monitors verified that both sides had met their obligations.The goal is to avoid a situation in which the technocratic government controls Gaza during the day while armed factions retain power at night, the official said.The other side: Israels withdrawal would proceed gradually under a timetable that is still being finalized.Trump said Israeli forces would withdraw as disarmament was completed and the international force and new Palestinian police assumed responsibility for security.Israel would also halt military operations and targeted killings in Gaza, except in cases involving an imminent threat."All military activity in Gaza will have to cease — both from Israel and Hamas," the Board of Peace official said.The big picture: Large parts of Gaza were destroyed during the war, and most of its 2 million residents continue to live in tents or makeshift shelters.Food and other aid are entering Gaza in large quantities, but the humanitarian situation remains dire.The Hamas-controlled Gaza Health Ministry says nearly 1,200 Palestinians have been killed since the Oct. 10, 2025, ceasefire. Some were Hamas militants, while many others were civilians, including children.Inside the room: The senior U.S. official said the Trump administration coordinated closely with Israel throughout the negotiations.The administration also intends to ensure Israel fulfills its commitments under the agreement, despite Israels skepticism that Hamas will disarm."We are not asking Israel for anything other than to implement their commitments under the 20-point plan," the official said."If they do not do that, President Trump will be very disappointed. I do not think the Israelis would want to escalate things with us right now."Behind the scenes: Egypt, Qatar and Turkey exerted intense pressure on Hamas to accept the agreement, according to two sources familiar with the negotiations.A key figure was Egyptian intelligence chief Hassan Rashad, who hosted the talks and has a close relationship with Hamas political leader Khalil al-Hayya, U.S. officials and others familiar with the negotiations said.The intrigue: During a recent visit to Iran for the funeral of former Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, a Hamas delegation met with senior Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps officials, according to a source with knowledge of the meeting.The IRGC officials urged Hamas not to rush into signing the agreement and to play for time, the source said.A senior U.S. official also claimed Iran tried to convince Hamas not to sign the deal, but said the group chose not to listen.Editors note: This story has been updated with additional details throughout.
