  • Director-General of the Gaza Board of Peace, Nickolay Mladenov, has proposed a 15-point roadmap for implementing a Gaza peace plan.
  • The plan includes phased Hamas disarmament, an IDF withdrawal from Gaza, and reconstruction efforts contingent on stability and verified administration.
  • Mladenov emphasized that progress depends on mutual fulfillment of obligations, with a verification mechanism to ensure compliance.

The Jerusalem Post highlights the latest initiative aimed at achieving peace in Gaza, spearheaded by Nickolay Mladenov, Director-General of the Gaza Board of Peace. Mladenov has unveiled a comprehensive 15-point roadmap designed to implement President Trump's peace plan for the region.

This detailed plan addresses the critical issues of Hamas disarmament and Israeli Defense Forces withdrawal. Crucially, it proposes a phased, Palestinian-led, and internationally verified process for disarming Hamas, with confiscated weapons to be transferred to the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NGAG). This approach acknowledges the complexities on the ground and seeks a gradual transition rather than immediate, unilateral action.

the purpose of the ISF is to reduce friction during the transition and support stability while Palestinian transitional institutions assume responsibility on the ground.

Reconstruction of Gaza is intrinsically linked to the successful implementation of these steps. Mladenov stresses that rebuilding homes, schools, and infrastructure will only commence once stability is verified and a functioning administration under NGAG is in place. The roadmap also includes a 'Social Peace Agreement' to halt internal violence and displays of armed force. From our perspective in Israel, any plan that prioritizes stability, verified disarmament, and a clear path to rebuilding is a step in the right direction, though the ultimate success hinges on the commitment of all parties involved and robust verification mechanisms.

the faster implementation progresses, the faster Gaza can begin rebuilding homes, schools, hospitals, infrastructure, and economic life at scale.
