U.S. President Donald Trump said early on Friday that the so-called Board of Peace has reached an agreement on the full disarmament of Hamas and other armed groups in Gaza. According to Trump, the deal will be implemented in stages and marks an important turning point in the conflict.

Trump described the agreement as a decisive step toward a new Palestinian administration in Gaza. He did not provide further details on how the disarmament would be carried out or when the different phases would begin.
