According a report by The New York Times, the United States is demanding that Hamas surrender all weaponry capable of harming Israel, but would initially allow the terrorist organization to retain small arms. The details were provided by officials and others familiar with the proposal.
The White House denied the specifics of the report, saying that President Donald Trump is "committed to the 20-point plan."
The report said a team led by an American official, including Kushner, Trump's son-in-law; Steve Witkoff, the US special envoy for peace missions; and former senior UN official Nikolay Mladenov, intends to share the document with Hamas within weeks.
The sources, including a regional diplomat and individuals familiar with the plan, spoke on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the matter. They cautioned that the details could still change and that additional drafts may yet emerge.
If the proposal is ultimately presented to Hamas, it would mark a significant step toward dismantling the armed terrorist organization, a central component of Trump's 20-point plan for Gaza. That plan formed the basis of the ceasefire agreement reached between Israel and Hamas after two years of war.
