The Gaza Peace Council said in a statement Thursday afternoon that negotiations are continuing and advancing. The roadmap for implementing the agreement includes the dismantling of all heavy and light weapons, tunnels, storage facilities, and production sites without exception. At the end of the process, Hamas will have no governing role in Gaza, either openly or behind the scenes, and the Gaza management committee will hold full authority under the principle of one authority, one law, and one weapon.
The Gaza Peace Council's latest statement, issued Thursday afternoon, reaffirms the framework for post-war governance in Gaza. The Council said negotiations are progressing and detailed the roadmap: full dismantling of all weapons, tunnels, and production infrastructure, with no exceptions. The statement explicitly states that Hamas will have no governing role, 'not openly nor behind the scenes,' and that the Gaza management committee will operate under the principle of one authority, one law, and one weapon. It also noted that each step by one side enables the next step by the other.
This follows the Council's earlier statement at 15:20 Jerusalem, which first declared that Hamas would have no role in governance. The Council's position has been consistent throughout the negotiations, as reported by The Zioneer and other outlets. The statement aligns with the detailed disarmament framework reported by N12's Amit Segal earlier Thursday, which outlined the storage of weapons under multinational guard and the condition that no Israeli withdrawal would occur without full demilitarization.
The Peace Council's insistence on total disarmament and no Hamas role remains a key pillar of the Trump peace plan's roadmap for Gaza.
