Journalist Amichai Stein (i24NEWS) reports a correction: the weapons will be handed over to the Palestinian technocratic government (NCAG) and the Gaza Peace Council, but U.S. General Jasper will supervise the transfer process.
A correction from journalist Amichai Stein (i24NEWS) clarifies key details regarding the Gaza disarmament process. According to the report, the heavy weapons will indeed be transferred to the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG) — the Palestinian technocratic government — and to the Gaza Peace Council. However, the supervision of the actual transfer will be conducted by an American general identified as General Jasper.
This update follows a bulletin published by The Zioneer at 18:53 today, citing an Israeli official who stated that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and U.S. envoy Jared Kushner had agreed on appointing a U.S. general to oversee the disarmament of Hamas. The new report now names the general and clarifies the chain of custody: the weapons themselves remain under NCAG and Peace Council control, while an American officer oversees the process.
The naming of General Jasper adds a concrete layer to the emerging framework, which has been the subject of extensive diplomatic negotiations involving the United States, Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey. The Gaza Peace Council has previously outlined a 'zero trust' model where verification mechanisms replace goodwill, and the appointment of a U.S. general aligns with that approach. Further details on General Jasper's background and the precise scope of his authority have not yet been reported.
