הטענות בדבר הסכם כספי בין BoardofPeace@ לבין חמאס הן שקריות. הצעה כזו לא נדונה, לא נוהל עליה משא ומתן, לא נשקלה, ולא תהיה על הפרק גם בעתיד.

בימים האחרונים החל לפעול מנגנון לניטור הפרות. כל הפרה שתואמת תטופל.

מועצת השלום הוקמה במסגרת תכנית הנשיא טראמפ לעזה ובהתאם להחלטת מועצת הביטחון 2803. שני המסמכים פומבי��ם וברורים: לחמאס לא יהיה כל תפקיד בממשל עזה ולא תהיה לו כל גישה לכספים.

כספי מועצת השלום אינם מועברים דרך חמאס. כל חוזה עובר בדיקות ואישורים, כל עבודה מאומתת לפני התשלום, וכל החשבונות פתוחים לביקורת מלאה מצד הממשלות התורמות.

כוח הייצוב הבינלאומי נועד לתמוך בפירוק הנשק ובהקמת ממשל אזרחי שבו לחמאס אין כל חלק. זו הייתה עמדתנו מלכתחילה והיא לא השתנתה.

מפת הדרכים היא מסגרת להסדר בין מועצת השלום לבין חמאס, בעוד שהדיונים עם ישראל נמשכים. ישראל אינה נדרשת להסתמך על אמון או לבצע צעדים בלתי הפיכים לפני שננקטים צעדים מאומתים בשטח. היעד נותר פירוק מלא של אמצעי הלחימה ��הבטחה שעזה לעולם לא תשוב להוות איום מהסוג שישראל חוותה ב־7 באוקטובר.

החלופות הן שחמאס יישאר בשלטון ויבנה מחדש את יכולותיו הצבאיות, או שישראל תחזור לשלוט בכלל אוכלוסיית בעזה במחיר אנושי, צבאי וכלכלי כבד ביותר. מועצת השלום מציעה אפשרות שלישית: פירוז מלא, ממשל אזרחי, נוכחות ביטחונית בינלאומית תחת פיקוד אמריקאי ומנגנוני פיקוח ואימות.

יש די והותר אתגרים אמיתיים במאמץ הזה, ואין צורך להמציא נוספים.

Long day in Jerusalem, sitting down with Prime Minister Netanyahu and his team. This is the start of the hard phase and I have never pretended otherwise. Not much of what we do now is dramatic. It is slow, grinding and technical work.

[Board of Peace @BoardOfPeace]

As part of the process of decommissioning weapons in Gaza and enabling the transition to civilian governance, and creating a safer future in the region for both Israelis and Palestinians in Gaza, a meeting was held earlier today (Monday) between High Representative Nickolay Mladenov, together with the Board of Peace team, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his team.

The meeting was constructive and detailed. Israel and the Board of Peace share a common understanding of the ultimate objectives.

The goal is clear and is not in question: the complete decommissioning of weapons in the Strip and the transition away from rule by the gun to civilian governance. Reaching it will be a process. And that process will be set out in the next phase of the work.

Contrary to inaccurate reports, we note that the withdrawal of the IDF beyond the Yellow Line will take place only once decommissioning is complete, as Hamas committed to the mediators. This applies to light weapons, heavy weapons, and the tunnels alike.

Implementation will be overseen by the International Stabilisation Force and by the Implementation Verification Committee, on which both the United States and the Board of Peace sit.

Continued progress towards implementation in full depends on each side fulfilling its obligations under the agreed framework.

[Nickolay E. MLADENOV @nmladenov]

Two days of strikes across Gaza have killed civilians and destroyed medical supplies that people depend on. This comes after intense efforts by the @BoardOfPeace and the mediators (Egypt, Turkiye, Qatar and the US) to bring the Palestinian factions in Gaza to agree to a Roadmap on the full implementation of President Trump's plan, to hand over civilian governance and to decomission their weapons.

Both parties carry obligations under the Comprehensive Plan and the Sharm El Sheikh deal that secured the release of all hostages.

My team and I are working around the clock with the parties, the mediators and regional partners to de-escalate and create the space for the full implementation of the President's plan. Achieving a lasting peace is hard but achievable if everyone make their best efforts.

[Nickolay E. MLADENOV @nmladenov]

@MarinaMedvin No its not. This is a Roadmap for the full implementation of the 20 Point Plan.

[Nickolay E. MLADENOV @nmladenov]

@KyleWOrton Oh, indeed I am. Believe me!

[Nickolay E. MLADENOV @nmladenov]

Today, agreement has been reached on the decommissioning of weapons and civilian transition in Gaza. It took months of very difficult negotiations to get here. There were several points when I did not believe we would make it... What the agreement says matters. What happens next matters even more. Implementation and verification have to be real. Withdrawal must move in lockstep with decommissioning. And the @NCAG and the Palestinian people need the political and practical backing to take charge of their own future. Grateful to @realDonaldTrump for driving this through, and to the #US, #Egypt, #Qatar, #Türkiye, #UAE for their support and for their help in keeping people in the room on the days when walking out would have been far easier. I want to also thank the UN Secuirty Council for staying focused on our work and consistently messaging how important it is to fully implement resolution 2803. Ahead of us is a Gaza rebuilt, governed by Palestinians and at peace with Israel an a political horizon to a meaningful resolution the Israeli Palestinian conflict. That is the work now.

[Nickolay E. MLADENOV @nmladenov]

I welcome steps by Israel that enable the deployment of the International Stabilization Force in Gaza, in accordance with UN Security Council Resolution 2803. It is a critical part of the agreed framework for stabilizing Gaza, supporting demilitarization, and enabling the transition to effective Palestinian transitional administration under the @NCAG.

The focus now in on ensuring that we move forward with the 20-point Plan for Gaza, including the implementation of the Roadmap as presented by the mediators.

[Nickolay E. MLADENOV @nmladenov]

Moving forward! Multinational effort continues with Internarional Stabilization Force. Excellent debrief with Kosovo and Morocco contingents preparing next deployments with visit to Gaza today. Thank you for your contributions and looking forward to working together. @NCAG @BoardOfPeace

[Nickolay E. MLADENOV @nmladenov]

My sincere gratitude to His Majesty King Mohammed VI for his visonary leadership, and to the Kingdom of #Morocco for its meaningful contribution to the International Stabilisation Force in Gaza. Through security support, humanitarian assistance and the deployment of a field hospital, Morocco is, once again, translating its longstanding commitment to the Palestinian people into concrete action. An important contribution to #peace, stability and hope for Gaza and the realisation of #UNSCR 2803 and President Trump's Comprehensive Peace Plan. @MarocDiplomatie @BoardofPeace @USEmbMorocco

[Nickolay E. MLADENOV @nmladenov]

Thank you, Commissioner @dubravkasuica, for mobilizing resources for Gaza at PDG yesterday, today’s constructive engagement and for the @EU_Commission readiness to work closely with the @NCAG on early recovery efforts in Gaza. This coordination will be essential
to support implementation of the Comprehensive Plan and #UNSCR 2803, address urgent needs, and help move Gaza from survival towards recovery and
reconstruction at scale.

[Nickolay E. MLADENOV @nmladenov]

At the Palestine Donor Group Ministerial Meeting in Brussels, I welcomed the EU’s renewed support for Gaza and coordination with the @BoardOfPeace. Both @AliShaathNCAG and I stressed that survival must become recovery, and recovery must become reconstruction at scale. That requires full implementation of the Comprehensive Plan and UNSCR 2803, transition to the @NCAG, Israeli withdrawal, and the disarmament of armed factions under the principle of one authority, one law, one weapon. Gaza cannot wait.

[Board of Peace @BoardOfPeace]

The #ISF welcomes the newest members of the Kosovo Security Force to the team. They will support the Gaza security effort in areas such as logistics and civil affairs.
#StabilityStartsHere

[Nickolay E. MLADENOV @nmladenov]

Today's announcement in Gaza underscores the importance of bringing the Roadmap discussions to a successful conclusion. It is the bridge between declarations and implementation. The sooner agreement is reached on the outstanding implementation provisions, the sooner the @NCAG can assume its responsibilities, the decommissioning of weapons and the withdrawal of Israeli forces can begin, and large-scale reconstruction can commence.

[Nickolay E. MLADENOV @nmladenov]
