Khalil al-Hayya leads a Hamas delegation to Cairo to discuss a 15-point Gaza peace plan.
Hamas political leader Khalil al-Hayya is traveling to Cairo to meet with Egyptian officials, including intelligence chief Hassan Rashad, to discuss a 15-point Gaza peace plan. This plan, proposed by the Board of Peace, outlines a roadmap for the complete disarmament of Hamas and the establishment of a new Palestinian governing committee. While the administration announced that the Board of Peace reached a 'historic' agreement on the disarmament of Hamas, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has formally rejected the plan, stating that Israeli forces will not withdraw until Hamas is genuinely disarmed. To facilitate negotiations, Jared Kushner, the son-in-law of President Trump, will travel to Israel and Egypt next week. He will be accompanied by former British Prime Minister Tony Blair and Nikolay Mladenov. The visit follows continued Israeli military action in Gaza, where two Palestinians were allegedly killed by Israeli forces on Saturday. Since the ceasefire began last October, over 1,250 Palestinians have been allegedly killed by Israeli forces in the Gaza Strip.
