Hamas has begun dissolving its government in the Gaza Strip, as part of the Trump-brokered peace plan with Israel.
The head of the enclave’s Emergency Committee has now submitted his resignation, in a move that will see the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza, a committee of technocrats, take over the reins of government.
According to Hamas, “technical and professional staff” will remain in place to provide continuity for the residents of Gaza.
President Trump’s Board of Peace, formed to oversee the peace process and the rebuilding of Gaza, responded to the dissolution of Emergency Committee by saying it would begin the process of meeting “the critical needs of the people of Gaza.”
“Decisions must be comprehensive with respect to the requirements as set out in the Roadmap for advancing governance, security, and transition in Gaza,” it said.
“We look forward to the successful conclusion of discussions on this Roadmap, including on the implementation mechanisms necessary to enable the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza to assume full governing authority.”
“A genuine transfer of authority must enable the NCAG to exercise its mandate independently, including taking the administrative and governance decisions entrusted to it,” the Board of Peace concluded.
Meetings are now expected to be held in Cairo between US officials and Palestinian representatives to continue the transition.

WHY is Hamas speaking for Gaza?
Hamas was created, and is funded by Israel’s spy agency, Mossad.
So, headline should read “Israel begins dissolving Gaza government.”
