Trump says Board of Peace agrees on Hamas disarmament

Under the agreement with the Board of Peace to disarm Hamas, a transitional Palestinian committee of technocrats will run Gaza and will oversee the storing of the militant group's weapons, a senior Hamas official told the AFP news agency.

Hamas would hand over its arms to that transitional administration and to international mediators, rather than Israel.

"The National Committee for Administration of Gaza (NCAG) shall manage and execute the cataloguing and storage of weapons in accordance with the agreed timetable," the official said. 

"The National Committee will be the sole entity authorised to retain, store, or control weapons in Gaza," they added.
