Trump's Board of Peace Gives Hamas Disarmament Deadline
(New York Times) Adam Rasgon - President Trump's Board of Peace is demanding that Hamas finalize an agreement to demilitarize Gaza by the end of this week, according to four diplomats briefed on the talks. The demand by the international body established to oversee the six-month-old ceasefire in Gaza would require Hamas to agree to eventually give up all its weapons and share maps of its underground tunnel network. The deadline reflects the Trump administration's eagerness to secure a lasting ceasefire in Gaza and its growing impatience with Hamas. The U.S. and Israel have conditioned the reconstruction of Gaza on Hamas relinquishing its arsenal.
