Part 3/11:
Disarmament ambiguities stand out as a primary concern. The current peace plan, brokered during the Trump administration, calls for Hamas to begin a demilitarization process under international supervision. However, crucial details—such as the scope, timeline, and overseeing bodies—remain undefined. This vagueness fuels mutual suspicion: Israel fears Hamas will continue arms smuggling and tunnel rebuilding, while Hamas suspects Israel may never lift its blockade fully. Over recent days, Hamas has reactivated thousands of fighters and initiated violent reprisals against Gazans perceived as insufficiently supportive, further complicating the disarmament trajectory. Without clear verification mechanisms, the risk persists that either side will accuse the other of cheating, jeopardizing the entire agreement.
