Donald Trump says his proposed peace plan for Gaza would eventually lead to Hamas disarmament. However, multiple reports indicate that whether the plan can move forward depends on Israel’s position and its response to the proposal.
One account notes that progress toward the plan is linked to whether Hamas is able to disarm as part of any eventual agreement. At the same time, other sources describe uncertainty over Israel’s willingness to support the framework, suggesting that talks and any wider accord could hinge on Israel’s actions.
A Hamas official and a diplomat close to discussions connected to the Cairo talks say the plan’s viability is being tested. They frame the outcome as dependent on Israel’s response and on whether that response enables negotiators to reach a broad, comprehensive agreement rather than only limited steps. In this reporting, disarmament is presented as a key element, but the immediate obstacle remains unclear Israeli engagement and approval for a wider settlement.
