* This page tracks the Gaza disarmament roadmap announced by the Board of Peace at the end of July 2026 - what the deal actually says, which deadlines are real, and what has and has not happened since. We update it as steps are met or missed; the "Updated" date at the top tells you how fresh it is. * What was announced. Late on Thursday, July 30, 2026, Trump said the Board of Peace had reached an agreement on the disarmament of Hamas. The full roadmap was published the following day. Mediators from Egypt, Qatar, Turkiye and the United States negotiated it, and it is framed as the next phase of the existing ceasefire rather than a new agreement replacing it. Trump called it "a critical step towards Gaza finally being governed by a new Palestinian government" (Al Jazeera, July 31, 2026). * Who is running it. The Board of Peace is a US-led body chaired for life by Trump. Its founding executive board has seven members, led by former British prime minister Tony Blair and including Jared Kushner, Marco Rubio, Steve Witkoff and Ajay Banga. Verification sits with a separate International Verification Committee, which certifies compliance before the next phase can begin and monitors alleged violations. Physical enforcement sits with the International Stabilization Force, a multinational force of about 5,000 troops overseen by an American general (Al Jazeera). * What the roadmap says, in order. The document is organised as principles followed by security provisions: * - Points 1-2 reaffirm commitment to the Trump Gaza plan and UN Security Council Resolution 2803, and require both parties to complete their remaining commitments "without delay." - Point 3 makes progression to the next phase contingent on verified completion of the previous one, with the International Verification Committee monitoring violations. - Point 4 has Hamas agreeing that governance and security functions transfer to the NCAG, the new Palestinian committee administering Gaza. - Point 5 requires the NCAG to maintain institutions and commission a comprehensive audit of finances, with a maximum commitment assessed at $400 million over three years. - Point 6 sets the governing security principle: "One Authority, One Law, One Weapon." - Point 7 covers police vetting - officers who fail the standards are offered civilian roles or retirement rather than dismissal. - Point 8 states that decommissioning of heavy weapons begins after completion of the Sharm el-Sheikh Protocol. - Point 9 places personal weapons under Palestinian law, with the NCAG as the sole registration authority. - Point 10 puts militia weapons into storage under NCAG authority and excludes their holders from the security services. - Point 11 requires a Social Peace Agreement obliging factions to "immediately end internal violence, avoid reprisals." * (Full text as published by The National, July 31, 2026.) * The deadlines that matter. Two 14-day clocks start on approval: one for the implementation timetable and mechanisms, one for the completed weapons-decommissioning timetable. Both can be extended, but only with the agreement of the International Verification Committee and the parties - so an extension is itself a visible event, not a quiet slip. Financial commitments are phased over three years. Al Jazeera reported analyst estimates of 200 to 300 days for full demilitarisation, which places the end of the process well past Israel’s general election in October 2026. * The asymmetry worth watching. Read the two sides of the deal next to each other. The Hamas obligations are dated, itemised and verifiable: an inventory, a timetable, heavy weapons first, tunnels, storage under a named authority. The Israeli obligation - withdrawal - is described as phased and consistent with the earlier plan, sequenced against verified progress on the other side. That is a familiar structure in negotiated disarmament, and it is also the structure that most often stalls, because one party’s compliance is measured in signed inventories and the other’s is measured in maps. * What has not happened. As of August 2, 2026, Israel has not publicly confirmed that it accepts the roadmap; Al Jazeera reported it had not commented on the agreement. Hamas, for its part, has attached an explicit condition: official Ghazi Hamad said Hamas "will not implement any step of the Gaza peace deal if the Israeli occupation forces do not fulfil their obligations." An agreement announced by mediators is not the same thing as an agreement both belligerents have endorsed in public, and until that changes, the 14-day clock is running on a document one party has not backed out loud. * What we will be updating here: whether the implementation and decommissioning timetables appear by the mid-August deadline or get formally extended; whether Israel states a public position; whether heavy-weapons decommissioning actually begins and the International Verification Committee certifies it; each phase of Israeli withdrawal; and the standing up of the NCAG, the Social Peace Agreement and the International Stabilization Force deployment.
