‘A closed issue’: Hamas source rules out governance role in post-war Gaza October 12, 2025 at 12:28AM

This significant shift comes as global leaders prepare for a peace summit in Egypt to discuss US President Trump's plan for a deradicalized Gaza. Disarmament remains a firm 'red line' for Hamas, though a long-term truce is agreed upon.
