Israel didn\u2019t give an indication that they had agreed.<\/p><div><\/div><p>U.S. and Board of Peace officials, describing the deal to reporters on condition of anonymity under guidelines set by the White House, gave an extremely optimistic assessment of the agreement that laid out a scenario very similar to the one described by Trump and his top aides when the Board of Peace, an international body established by Trump to oversee the ceasefire in Gaza, was first formed.<\/p><p>The officials were unable to offer specific timelines for the disarmament of Hamas or other groups that operate in Gaza, such as Palestinian Islamic Jihad, but said the Gaza police force would turn over weapons to the technocratic Board of Peace-backed Gaza administration in the next two weeks.<\/p><p>The Gaza police force, however, does not include the vast majority of Hamas militants and heavy weaponry is not included in that part of the agreement, according to the officials.<\/p><p>Instead, the surrender of heavy weapons and the decommissioning of Hamas tunnels and other infrastructure are to come later in a process that could take between 200 and 350 days, a Board of Peace official said.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/trustedmovinggroups.com\/?p=3447\">U.S. government map of Africa mislabels every country at global conference<\/a><\/p><p>A U.S. official said Israel, which has been deeply skeptical about Hamas\u2019 willingness to give up its guns or relinquish at least behind-the-scenes control of Gaza, had been consulted at every step of the negotiation.<\/p><p>However, the official said Israel was not being asked to do anything more than what it had initially committed to when it agreed to Trump\u2019s 20-point plan, which essentially involves withdrawing its forces from Gaza and committing to ending airstrikes on the territory.<\/p><div><\/div><p>The official said Trump would be \u201cvery, very disappointed\u201d if Israel didn\u2019t adhere to the agreement. Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met at the White House on Tuesday, but neither said much about what was discussed in their first face-to-face meeting since launching the war against Iran.<\/p><p>Israel\u2019s U.N. Mission said it had no immediate comment.<\/p><p>The official added that Iran remains a wildcard in the equation because although it counseled Hamas members not to accept a deal, it is also not in a position to offer the group much support because it is preoccupied with the conflict with the United States.<\/p><p>Hamas previously had insisted on implementing the first phase of the ceasefire before moving to discuss its weapons. The group\u2019s founding charter calls for armed resistance against Israel, and it has been reluctant to give up an arsenal, including rockets, anti-tank missiles and explosives, that lies at the heart of its identity.<\/p><p>Hamas announced earlier this month, however, that it had dissolved its government in Gaza and was preparing to transfer power to a technical committee backed by the United Nations as part of the ceasefire deal.<\/p><p>The war in Gaza began after the Hamas-led attack on southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, killed around 1,200 people and saw 251 taken hostage. Israel\u2019s retaliatory offensive in Gaza has killed more than 73,000 Palestinians, including those killed since the ceasefire, Gaza\u2019s Health Ministry said.<\/p><div><\/div><p>Israel\u2019s military now controls more than half of Gaza, leaving Palestinians confined to squalid tent camps and heavily damaged urban neighborhoods.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/trustedmovinggroups.com\/?p=3445\">Anthropic says Claude AI hacked three companies during cyber tests<\/a><\/p><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Israeli strikes killed at least six Palestinians in Gaza on Thursday, including two children, medics said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3449,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3452","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-middle-east-conflict"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
