Hamas agrees to disarm under Trump plan, but no word from Israel

Hamas said Friday it had agreed to a deal announced by US President Donald Trump to end the war with Israel, that includes it handing over its weapons to a Palestinian governing committee and the gradual withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza. Israel did not immediately comment on the announcement, but shortly beforehand an Israeli political source had told AFP the proposed agreement did not "satisfactorily" address Israeli demands for the full demilitarisation of the Gaza Strip.
