Hamas says it reaches agreement to disarm after Trump announces deal

Hamas announced on Friday that it has agreed to a road map for disarming, a development that could potentially help end the war in Gaza. This agreement is contingent on Israel making reciprocal concessions, including ending hostilities and withdrawing its troops from the Palestinian territory. A senior Hamas official, Bassem Naim, confirmed the group's agreement to the deal via a post on X. While this represents a significant step, the article notes that the disarmament process will likely face numerous challenges and may take a considerable amount of time to achieve, if it is achieved at all. The agreement was reported by a Hamas official and a regional official to the Associated Press.
