What happened: Gaza agreement claims and Palestinian group positions
Public messaging around a Gaza-related agreement included competing positions from Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and a separate body called the Board of Peace. Hamas political bureau member Ghazi Hamad linked the weapons issue to Israeli withdrawal, entry of the National Committee, and reconstruction, while stating that Israel should not interfere in Gaza governance and reconstruction. Palestinian Islamic Jihad said reports about the agreement were inaccurate and expressed reservations about the version circulating publicly. The Board of Peace released a separate 15-point roadmap for peace.
