U.S. announces progress toward demilitarizing Gaza and civilian rule
The U.S. administration announced progress toward demilitarizing Gaza and establishing civilian rule on the first anniversary of the Sharm El-Sheikh Agreement. It listed a permanent ceasefire, the return of hostages, the Board of Peace and the establishment of a Palestinian technocratic administration among the process’s key elements.
On the first anniversary of the Sharm El-Sheikh Agreement, the U.S. administration announced that progress had been made toward demilitarizing Gaza and establishing civilian rule in the region.
The administration said that, since the ceasefire prepared by U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration began, “a series of remarkable achievements laying the foundations for a new Gaza” had been achieved.
Governance and reconstruction plan for Gaza
Washington listed a permanent ceasefire and the return of all living and deceased hostages among the areas where progress had been made. The establishment of a Board of Peace to govern Gaza and a Palestinian technocratic administration were also included in this framework.
The administration said that rebuilding Gaza would be a difficult process spanning years. It also said progress had been made toward a demilitarized Gaza where Palestinians could live without Hamas rule and Israel could have lasting security.
Attacks continue despite the ceasefire
Israeli attacks have continued despite the ceasefire that has been in effect in Gaza for nearly a year.
According to figures released by Gaza’s Health Ministry on October 8, Israeli attacks since the ceasefire began have killed 1,471 Palestinians and injured 5,189 people.
The same figures put the number of people killed in Gaza since October 2023 at 74,254 and the number of injured at 175,306.
