Trump’s Key Announcement on Gaza Peace Deal

The Israel-Hamas war, which began in October 2023, has caused severe humanitarian damage in Gaza, resulting in thousands of deaths and displacement of a large number of people. Amid the ongoing crisis, US President Donald Trump announced that the ‘Board of Peace’ has reached a key agreement aimed at establishing peace and overseeing reconstruction efforts in Gaza. He described the agreement as a significant step toward bringing stability and security to the region, adding that the disarmament process would be carried out carefully in phases.

Trump thanked mediators from Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey for their role in facilitating the agreement. However, Hamas has not yet issued an official statement regarding the deal. Reports suggest discussions are underway regarding steps toward disarmament. Security arrangements in Gaza will involve local police along with the International Stabilization Force (ISF). Meanwhile, violence continues in parts of Gaza, with Israel maintaining that the complete disarmament of Hamas remains a key condition for lasting peace.
