Hamas has agreed not to participate in governing Gaza in the next stage of cease-fire negotiations, Saudi television network Al Arabiya reported on Saturday.
The report, citing unnamed sources, claimed that Hamas remains committed to the three-phase hostage-prisoner exchange deal and has accepted that it will not be involved in the political administration of Gaza moving forward.
Egypt is engaged in intensive negotiations to establish a temporary committee to oversee Gaza’s reconstruction, with discussions involving Israel, Hama, and international stakeholders.
