N12's Amit Segal details Hamas disarmament agreement: all weapons to be stored under multinational guard

Details of the Disarmament Framework

According to the report by Amit Segal, the agreement covers the entirety of Hamas's military infrastructure. This includes not only active weaponry but also storage facilities, tunnels, and production sites. The handover process is slated to begin within a few weeks, with the weapons being moved to designated warehouses secured by multinational forces. Crucially, the framework specifies that no Israeli withdrawal from the original ceasefire line (the 'yellow line') will occur without full demilitarization.

Commitments and Security Clauses

Under the proposed terms, Hamas commits to ceasing all military activity, including recruitment and force buildup. This is intended to occur in parallel with a cessation of targeted killings by Israel. However, the report notes an alternative phrasing in the draft that would preserve Israel's right to act against emerging threats. The final authority over the stored weapons and their decommissioning will rest with a Palestinian committee, marking a transition toward the technocratic governance models previously discussed in regional negotiations.

Context and Outlook

This development follows earlier reports of a senior Hamas delegation in Cairo negotiating a transition of power. As The Zioneer reported earlier this month, the Gaza Peace Council had already indicated that negotiations on a second phase of the ceasefire were advancing toward a framework for full disarmament. While the current report suggests significant progress, the implementation of multinational guarding and the verification of tunnel destruction remain complex operational hurdles. The situation remains developing as mediators seek final approval from all parties.
