Benjamin Netanyahu and U.S. envoy Jared Kushner discuss a Gaza framework in which Hamas disarmament is required before Israel withdraws, according to Israeli officials cited by multiple outlets. The talks focus on placing an American general to oversee and verify the decommissioning of Hamas weapons, while keeping the Israeli military present in Gaza until that condition is met.
Several reports say the understanding also links disarmament to whether Israel can redeploy and whether reconstruction or other changes proceed. Outlets describe Trump administration efforts to revive a Gaza peace plan, with some noting Kushner’s recent direct contacts with Hamas in Egypt. Different coverage emphasizes various aspects: some foreground Israel’s insistence on no withdrawal before disarmament, while others highlight the U.S. role in verification and the timing of any redeployment or reconstruction. Bloomberg and other sources frame the arrangement as likely to limit prospects for an immediate deal, reflecting ongoing tensions between the parties.
Overall, all accounts describe a similar core condition—Hamas disarms under U.S. supervision before Israel withdraws—while portraying the broader diplomatic context and obstacles differently across outlets.
