TEHRAN (Defapress) - Al-Arabi Al-Jadeed newspaper reported, citing informed sources, that the leaders of the Hamas movement have been under extensive pressure in recent days to disarm the Resistance in the Gaza Strip and withdraw from the political developments.

According to the report, the aforementioned demands were raised as a basis for the start of the second phase of the ceasefire agreement and the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip.

The informed sources continued that some countries are exerting pressure to implement a plan that has been developed in several countries with the aim of presenting it to the US government, which states that the Resistance should be disarmed as a guarantee for stopping the implementation of the Palestinian displacement plan and starting the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip.

They stated that this plan would be presented to US President Donald Trump to withdraw his plan to displace the Palestinians.

This is while Hamas has informed officials in Arab countries, including Egypt, that it is ready to support the Palestinian groups ruling the Gaza Strip, but is not willing to negotiate with the Resistance on disarmament unless a specific timetable is presented for the formation of a Palestinian state with specific borders, after which the issue of integrating the Resistance forces into the Palestinian security services can be examined.
