Hamas is reportedly considering President Donald Trump’s proposal to end the war in Gaza, presented Monday alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The plan would see Hamas disarmed and removed from governing the enclave, with members who surrender their weapons offered amnesty or the option to leave for receiving countries.
Palestinian Authority Supports Plan
The Palestinian Authority has backed the proposal, pledging reforms and committing to hold presidential and parliamentary elections within a year after the war. The statement emphasized creating a modern, democratic, and non-militarized Palestinian state with peaceful power transfers.
Interim Governance and International Oversight
Gaza would initially be managed by an interim group of technocrats under an international “Board of Peace,” chaired by Trump and including former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. If Hamas agrees, the plan would trigger a ceasefire, release hostages and prisoners, and expand humanitarian aid, while Israel would maintain security control around Gaza.
Regional Reactions
Several Muslim-majority countries, including Jordan, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, have welcomed the plan. Their statements highlighted the importance of partnership with the U.S. to rebuild Gaza, prevent Palestinian displacement, and promote a comprehensive peace, while opposing West Bank annexation.
