Hamas plans to continue having administrative control of Gaza, contrary to what the ceasefire agreement establishes, according to a leaked document shared by KAN News on Sunday.
The document outlines how officials affiliated with Hamas must act before the establishment of the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG), including dos and don’ts to avoid raising suspicions with the new government. The document also states that NCAG members can’t be attacked, while activities must continue “as if nothing had changed.”
The document shared on Sunday was reportedly a secret memo only to be seen by Hamas officials inside Gaza, KAN explained.
Achieving sustainable peace necessitates that all parties involved comply with the established terms of the ceasefire. In the next stage of the peace agreement, Hamas has not yet demonstrated that it is a genuine partner for peace. Its primary objective still appears to be the complete annihilation of Israel. Ongoing breaches of the ceasefire must not be overlooked, and Hamas must be held entirely accountable for failure to completely live up to its terms.
