Gaza: What the Trump Peace Council's Comprehensive Plan Predicts

The 'Peace Council' of Donald Trump presented a plan for Gaza that envisages the disarmament of Hamas in eight phases, the surrender of weapons, and the assumption of security control by Palestinian technocrats. The plan culminates in the complete withdrawal of Israeli forces, provided it is confirmed that Gaza is no longer armed. Hamas has long expressed its refusal to surrender its weapons, while Israel has set as a prerequisite for its withdrawal the complete disarmament of the area. Palestinian officials describe the plan as 'unfair' and express fears of a resumption of the war, as it links reconstruction to disarmament. Other Palestinian factions, such as Islamic Jihad, have also criticized the plan, prioritizing disarmament over reconstruction and the withdrawal of Israeli troops. The plan envisages a single authority, a legal system, and an army in Gaza.
