## retained text



```
US President Donald Trump said Palestinian militant group Hamas had agreed to disarm and Israel would withdraw from Gaza. The Trump-convened Board of Peace reportedly hammered out the details as part of the US-backed Gaza ceasefire. Neither Hamas nor Israel has confirmed Trump’s claims, although a senior Hamas official told the BBC the group had agreed.
It would be a major step toward ending Gaza’s humanitarian crisis, but doubts remain: Israeli politicians have expressed skepticism, and Trump can be mercurial. Recently, he declared a US nuclear deal with Saudi Arabia was conditional on the country normalizing relations with Israel — something Riyadh has not acknowledged — and appeared to backtrack on commitments to let Ukraine produce Patriot missiles days after the announcement.
