"Qatar and Turkey are reportedly advocating a two‑year grace period during which Hamas could legally retain its weapons…"
In that case, Israel must have a grace period during which to eliminate Hamas.https://t.co/1GWeWghxy4

“Qatar and Turkiye are working to create a certain situation in which the terrorist organization will remain in Gaza with weapons. In discussions with the Americans, the two are raising various options for Hamas to hand over its weapons to the Palestinian Authority, or to transfer the weapons to a warehouse under some kind of supervision,” sources told Ynet.
“There is also disagreement about the timetable for disarming Hamas: Qatar and Turkiye are proposing a two-year window in which Hamas can continue to possess weapons, while Israel is strongly opposed and insists on a few months. The Israeli message to the Americans is that if Hamas is not disarmed, Israel will step in and disarm it,” the report added.
According to Ynet, Washington has signaled it could be open to the plan.
