U.S. President Donald Trump has announced what he described as a “historic” agreement reached by a peace delegation to secure the complete disarmament of Hamas and other armed groups in Gaza through the phased implementation of what he called the “20-Point Trump Plan.”
According to Trump, the agreement provides for a step-by-step disarmament process that would be carried out alongside a gradual withdrawal of Israeli forces from the Gaza Strip.
Trump said the administration of Gaza would be transferred to a new Palestinian government working in cooperation with the peace delegation. Security responsibilities would be assumed by an international stabilization force together with a newly established Palestinian police service.
The U.S. president also thanked Egypt, Qatar and Turkey for their role in mediating the negotiations, adding that his administration would not allow Gaza to become the source of another attack similar to that of October 7.
According to U.S. officials, the proposed framework includes the phased surrender of weapons, the destruction of tunnels and weapons-production facilities, and the deployment of international personnel to oversee implementation. Civil administration of Gaza would be entrusted to a Palestinian technocratic government.
However, key elements of the agreement—including the implementation timetable, verification mechanisms for disarmament and procedures for enforcing commitments—have not yet been fully disclosed.
At the same time, reports indicate that Israel remains cautious about the security guarantees that would follow the withdrawal of its forces, while Hamas has not issued a full official endorsement of the proposed agreement.
Analysts say the success of the initiative will depend on sustained cooperation among the parties, credible international monitoring, long-term financial support for Gaza’s reconstruction and effective measures to prevent a return to armed conflict.
As of publication, the full text of the agreement has not been released publicly, and several core provisions remain subject to further clarification.
