US President Donald Trump said on Thursday his so-called “Board of Peace” reached an agreement for the complete disarmament of Palestinian Hamas fighters and other armed groups in Gaza.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump cast it as a “major milestone in the implementation of the Trump 20-Point Plan” to end Israel’s war in Gaza.
Trump said the deal would be carried out in phases, with Israeli forces withdrawing as disarmament proceeds and an International Stabilisation Force working with a new Palestinian police force to secure the enclave.
He thanked mediators Egypt, Qatar and Turkey.
“This agreement is a critical step towards Gaza finally being governed by a new Palestinian government that will work closely with the Board of Peace to help the Palestinian people,” Trump said.
“At the same time, Israel will have the security it deserves,” Trump added.
