Gaza ceasefire plan outlines 15-point roadmap for peace and withdrawal
The Board of Peace has released a detailed 15-point roadmap to implement US President Donald Trump’s proposed Gaza ceasefire plan. The document sets out steps for ending military operations, disarming armed groups, and arranging a gradual Israeli withdrawal from the territory.
Under the plan, Israel, Hamas and other Palestinian factions would all stop military actions. Once every party approves the agreement, a full timetable and practical mechanisms must be prepared within 14 days, with a possible short extension if needed.
A new body called the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza, or NCAG, would enter the territory and begin taking on governing duties. Progress from one stage to the next would depend on verified completion of previous commitments. An International Verification Committee would check that both sides meet their obligations and would also record any violations.
Gaza would be run under the principle of “One Authority, One Law, One Weapon.” The NCAG would operate according to Palestinian laws and international standards. Newly trained police officers would join existing police structures after thorough vetting. Those who fail the standards would be offered civilian jobs instead. All police weapons would come under NCAG control.
A key section deals with Hamas’s heavy weapons, production sites, depots and tunnels. These would be decommissioned and placed in storage in a gradual, sequential and time-bound process managed by the NCAG. The process would be directly linked to a phased Israeli pull-back from areas it currently controls. Importantly, no weapons would be handed over to Israel or to any non-Palestinian party. At the end of the process only the NCAG would hold or control weapons inside Gaza.
A temporary International Stabilisation Force would deploy to separate Israeli troops from areas under NCAG authority. This force would monitor the ceasefire, help train Palestinian police, protect humanitarian aid deliveries and support the new administration. It would not carry out ordinary policing duties among the Palestinian population.
The roadmap stresses that each stage must be completed and verified before the next begins. Hamas has indicated that its weapons would go into storage only after Israel starts implementing its side of the deal. The plan aims to create a clear sequence that builds confidence on both sides while placing day-to-day control of Gaza under a single Palestinian civilian authority.
