An announcement on Hamas’s agreement to a 15-point Board of Peace proposal that would see the gradual handover of the terror group’s weapons could come in the coming days, an Arab diplomat familiar with the negotiations said.
But as reports amassed about an imminent deal, an Israeli official appeared to pour cold water on the optimism, saying that the 15-point proposal “does not adequately address” Jerusalem’s demands for the “complete demilitarization, [which is] a precondition for any process.”
“There will be no IDF withdrawal from the Yellow Line in the Gaza Strip before Hamas is disarmed and the Strip is fully demilitarized,” the Israeli official added.
The proposal being discussed would see Hamas — over an eight-month period — gradually hand over its weapons to the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza, the Board of Peace-overseen panel of Palestinian technocrats that is tasked with replacing the terror group in governing the Strip, the Arab diplomat said.

“They're begging for a deal …”
Yep, it’s a fraud. Hamas needs to be exterminated with prejudice. It’s the only way.
I hope that no ones right to keep and bear arms is being infringed.
Adult male Chechens don’t leave home without an AK-47 in their trunk.
Not even HAMAS knows how many Palestinian guns are in Gaza.
“Gun control” doesn’t work.
A "gradual handover of the terror group’s weapons" to be completed sometime in the future.
In exchange for a complete and immediate withdrawal of IDF forces from all of Gaza?
Did I guess right?
Don't know why Isreal wouldn't go for a deal like that.
what offer? Hamas is being eliminated... at long last... long long overdue....and they’ve broken every deal anyone’s tried to make... they’re all lies...soon the world will be free of them and their evil attacks, mass murders, rapes, tortures, threats, and Satanic Occuation of Israeli territory
“The right to keep and bear arms pertains to citizens of the USA.”
The second amendment applies to the people of the USA.
The right to keep and bear arms is god given.
Hamas barely exists anymore, they are a shell of their former selves. The IDF kills every single one of them every single damn day their leaders are all killed, so they need 12 yrs to rebuild and get new members, notice Iran doesnt even mention Hamas anymore they are irrelevant
No peace as long as Likud is in power.
Mohammed, you are pathetic
With Hamas?
Sorry, that is ridiculous.
