Summary

A U.S.-drafted plan for Gaza, reportedly prepared by Jared Kushner and real estate developer Witkoff, calls for Hamas to disarm. The plan, which has been discussed by Trump, would reportedly allow Hamas to keep some small arms.

In support of this effort, Indonesia says it is ready to deploy up to 8,000 troops to Gaza. However, the plan is facing challenges, with donors reportedly reluctant to fund it and the disarmament push stalling.
