A new disarmament proposal delivered by mediators of the Gaza ceasefire gives Hamas a 90-day deadline to surrender its heavy weaponry and provide maps of its extensive underground tunnel networks.

The proposal, which also targets other armed factions such as the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, demands that all militant groups in Gaza disarm completely within the coming months, according to a report by The Times of Israel.

During a meeting in Cairo, Hamas was presented with this disarmament framework by Nickolay Mladenov, President Trump’s Board of Peace Gaza representative.

The plan includes a gun-buyback initiative, offering potential immunity for those who voluntarily hand over their weapons.

“This disarmament strategy has the potential to pave the way for reconstruction, rejuvenate communities, and move us closer to a unified and negotiated solution to the Palestinian issue,” Mladenov stated on Thursday.

He further emphasized that the rebuilding of Gaza depends on the “complete decommissioning by Hamas and all armed factions, with no exceptions or exemptions.”

The terror group has reportedly shown flexibility on relinquishing its heavy weaponry — such as rocket launchers and missiles — but has refused to negotiate on delivering its guns, which Hamas says it needs for self-defense.

Iran and Hamas signed on to Trump’s 20-point cease-fire plan in October 2025, which ended the war in Gaza. The plan calls for Hamas to disarm as Israeli forces gradually withdraw from the Gaza Strip.

A non-partisan technocratic government overseen by the Board of Peace would govern the strip, and an International Stabilization Force would replace IDF troops in the areas they withdraw from.

The weapons handover would go region by region, beginning in Southern Gaza, with reconstruction in the strip advancing as the area becomes demilitarized.

The proposal also calls for Israel to lift caps on humanitarian aid that can enter Gaza.

Israel has long demanded that Hamas turn over all of its weaponry at once, but mediating countries concluded that the demand wasn’t realistic.

Israeli officials did not object to the proposal, but there is widespread skepticism that Hamas — the terror group responsible for the barbaric Oct. 7, 2023 attacks — would be willing to surrender its weapons.

Hamas is expected to respond to the proposal as early as next week.
