According to a report by N12's Amit Segal, the agreement between mediators and Hamas covers all weapons including police arms, tunnels, and production sites. At the end of the process, only a Palestinian committee will control weapons in Gaza. No Israeli withdrawal from the original ceasefire line will occur without full demilitarization. Hamas commits to cease all military activity, including recruitment, in parallel with a cessation of targeted killings, with an alternative clause preserving Israel's right to act against emerging threats. Weapons handover is expected to begin within weeks, with storage under multinational guard.
According to a detailed report by N12's Amit Segal, published at 14:54, the full terms of the Hamas disarmament agreement have been disclosed. The agreement covers all weapons in the Gaza Strip, including police arms, light and heavy weapons, tunnels, weapons depots, and production sites. At the conclusion of the process, only a Palestinian committee will be authorized to store, hold, or control weapons in Gaza. The framework stipulates that no Israeli withdrawal from the original ceasefire line (the 'yellow line') will take place without full demilitarization.
Hamas commits to cease all military activity, including recruitment and force buildup, in parallel with a cessation of targeted killings by Israel. An alternative phrasing in the draft preserves Israel's right to act against emerging threats. The handover of weapons is expected to begin within a few weeks, with the weapons stored and decommissioned in warehouses guarded by multinational forces.
This report is the most detailed public account of the agreement to date. It follows earlier reports from the Gaza Peace Council, which confirmed progress toward Phase 2 of the ceasefire agreement, and a diplomat's statement to i24NEWS earlier today emphasizing that the disarmament roadmap would have 'no exceptions' for weapons or individuals. As The Zioneer reported at 14:48, the Peace Council indicated that the framework includes full disarmament, destruction of tunnels and production facilities, and no governing role for Hamas in Gaza.
The proposed mechanism represents a significant step toward ending Hamas's military capabilities, though implementation challenges remain, including the verification of tunnel destruction and the establishment of the multinational guard force.
