Hamas Divided Over Trump’s Gaza Plan As Israel Prepares Prisoner And Hostage Exchange
Hamas’s political and military wings remain divided over disarmament under U.S. President Donald Trump’s Gaza peace plan. Political leaders, including Khalil al-Hayya, are willing to compromise despite reservations, while military commanders resist surrendering weapons. Hamas leader Izz al-Din Haddad is open to giving up offensive rockets but wants to keep defensive arms. Meanwhile, Israel is preparing a list of Palestinian prisoners for potential release, and Hamas has agreed to negotiate the exchange of all Israeli hostages. Both sides signal cautious optimism as Trump urges a ceasefire and the first stage of his peace plan moves toward implementation. Watch
