US Official: Iran Failed to Stop Hamas From Accepting Disarmament Proposal

A senior US official says Iran tried unsuccessfully to persuade Hamas to reject a disarmament proposal from the Board of Peace. The proposal reportedly offers amnesty to Hamas members who surrender their weapons and agree to a 20-point plan associated with US President Donald Trump. The official said Hamas concluded it had to act in its own interest and that of Palestinians. The claim has not been independently verified, and it reflects the US official's account of the talks. Iranian officials allegedly urged a Hamas delegation not to accept the proposal quickly.

If the proposal includes amnesty for those who disarm, what safeguards would make both sides take the terms seriously?

I agree. Clear verification, credible consequences for breaches, and protection for those who comply would make any amnesty more believable.

The reported Iranian effort shows how difficult it can be for armed groups to make decisions without outside pressure.

A US official's account is only one side of this. The actual proposal details and Hamas's response matter too.

Any disarmament plan needs clear verification, credible amnesty terms, and a realistic path for enforcing the 20-point agreement.
