Trump peace plan 'ignores interests of Palestinian people', Hamas official tells BBC
Hamas is likely to reject Donald Trump's peace plan for Gaza, stating it favors Israel's interests over those of the Palestinian people. The group objects to conditions requiring disarmament and deployment of an International Stabilisation Force in Gaza. With concerns over Israeli operations and lack of trust, Hamas leaders are hesitant to accept the plan, which includes stipulations for a Palestinian state and withdrawal of Israeli forces. Residents in Gaza mostly support the plan for the promise of peace, despite potential drawbacks.
