Board of Peace Won't Hold Israel to Truce Terms if Hamas Doesn't Okay Disarmament Offer
(Times of Israel) Jacob Magid - The U.S.-led Board of Peace tasked with overseeing the postwar management of Gaza does not intend to hold Israel to the terms of the October 2025 Gaza ceasefire if Hamas does not accept the board's framework for Hamas's disarmament, a document obtained by the Times of Israel shows. Nickolay Mladenov, the board's High Representative for Gaza, wrote, "Failure by Hamas to accept the framework within a reasonable timeframe, as determined by the Board of Peace and after consultation with the parties, shall render such commitments null and void," in a letter that he and senior U.S. official Aryeh Lightstone sent to the head of the Palestinian technocratic government that is meant to replace Hamas in Gaza.
