Hamas has indicated it is prepared to hand over its weapons to a new Gaza administration as part of a proposed peace agreement, but only if Israel fully withdraws its forces from the territory. Hamas official Ghazi Hamad said the disarmament plan depends on Israeli military withdrawal and the dismantling of allied militias. The proposal, backed by U.S.-led mediation, aims to establish a new technocratic administration for Gaza and advance long-term peace. However, Israel has not officially endorsed the agreement and continues to insist on complete Hamas disarmament first, leaving the deal's future uncertain. (PC: Reuters)
