A Roadmap for Completing the Implementation of President Trump’s Comprehensive Peace Plan in Gaza
Principles:
1. All parties reaffirm their commitment to President Trump’s Comprehensive Plan to achieve peace in Gaza, which constitutes, together with the UN Security Council Resolution no. 2803 (2025), the agreed upon international framework guiding the implementation of this process. Through this process, the parties aim at ending the cycle of destruction, securing the complete Israeli withdrawal from Gaza Strip, restoring normal life, enabling Palestinian governance, reconstruction, security, recovery and economic development, rehabilitating damaged sectors and facilitate launching a credible political path that achieves self-determination and Statehood.
2. Israel shall fully complete, without delay, all remaining commitments under Sharm Sheikh Protocol, particularly the cessation of military operations as detailed in annex (1). Hamas and the Palestinian factions shall complete the cessation of all military operations in accordance with Sharm Sheikh Protocol and the Peace Plan. In parallel, the timetable and implementation mechanisms of this Roadmap (“Implementation of Phase 2”) shall be prepared within 14 days after all parties approve the Roadmap, which could be extended by a decision by the International Verification Committee (IVC). Upon the completion of the timetable and implementation mechanisms, the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG) shall enter the Strip and start to assume its responsibilities. The IVC, that shall be established by the Board of Peace (BoP), comprising representatives from the guarantors, BoP and the International Stabilization Force (ISF), shall certify that both parties fulfill their commitments under the Roadmap before proceeding to the implementation of Phase 2.
3. Progression from one phase to the following one shall be contingent on the verified completion of the commitments of the previous phase. This verification shall be done by the IVC, which shall also observe any violations by either party through an enhanced monitoring mechanism.
4. Hamas and other factions agree that all civilian governance and security functions in Gaza shall be handed over to NCAG in accordance with President Trump’s Comprehensive Peace Plan in Gaza. They also assert that NCAG shall enjoy full independence in carrying out its responsibilities and that the factions shall not interfere in NCAG affairs during the transitional period, in accordance with UNSC Resolution 2803 (2025).
5. Upon fully assuming its responsibilities in Gaza, NCAG shall maintain the continuity of civilian institutions and public services.
All civil servants shall be treated lawfully, fairly and with dignity with respect to their rights. Those whose services are terminated or who are retired during the transitional period shall receive their rights in accordance with the Palestinian law.
With international support, NCAG shall carry out a comprehensive audit of the financial and administrative affairs in Gaza, and protect, recover and administer public assets and resources.
NCAG shall seek to assess the legitimate commitments to suppliers, contractors and other parties – up to a total amount of no more than $400M USD - and address them.
The implementation of these measures will be undertaken gradually, within three years, in accordance with priorities determined by the NCAG.
Any unresolved financial rights, liabilities or claims shall be addressed within the context of a wider national process later, and in accordance with the relevant Palestinian law.
Over the past few hours, Iranian state media have continued to report false claims by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) – three in particular.
🚫 FIRST CLAIM: The IRGC (again) claims free and open routes through the Strait of Hormuz are dangerous for commercial vessels.
✅ FACT: The immediate dangers posed to commercial vessels and their civilian crews are the IRGC’s verbal threats and attempted attacks.
🚫 SECOND CLAIM: The IRGC claims Three U.S. F-35 stealth fighters and three other aircraft were destroyed during a recent Iranian attack on an American air base.
✅ FACT: No U.S. aircraft were destroyed or damaged in recent attempted Iranian attacks. All missiles and drones were intercepted or failed to reach targeted areas.
🚫 THIRD CLAIM: Iranian state media is reporting that a commercial oil tanker, M/T Nora, has broken through the U.S. blockade.
✅ FACT: The commercial vessel has not broken through America’s steel wall blockade. More than 20 U.S. warships, hundreds of aircraft, and thousands of service members remain vigilant and continue to fully enforce the blockade.
🚨 JUST NOW: President Trump confirms he is STANDING BY Todd Blanche, and will NOT be pushed around by Cornyn and Tillis
“Remember, both Cornyn and Tillis voted for Merrick Garland, and others, too numerous to mention.”
“[Blanche] has the potential to go down as one of the Greatest Attorney Generals of All Time.”
“I have no objection to temporarily withdrawing Todd's name, if they do not do the right thing, and putting him back after Cornyn and Tillis are out of office.”
ELON MUSK: “The reason I went so hardcore for Trump was because, to me, this was a fork in the road. If they had another four years, they would legalize enough illegals in the swing states to make the swing states not swing states, they would be blue states. Then they would win the House, the Senate, and the Presidency. And then they will keep importing more illegals to cement that outcome. Basically what happened in California.
It would have been the end. That's why I went so hardcore for Trump. I invite people to do their research. The more they do their research, the more they will see that what I'm saying is absolutely true.”
Dear Spaniards, dear Europeans,
We are being invaded. We are being governed by traitors who orchestrated this.
The situation is critical. We cannot despair. Channel your energy into demanding that every single person storming Ceuta be sent back.
Join @SaveEuropeAct now.
Le immagini che arrivano da Ceuta sono impressionanti e dimostrano, ancora una volta, che l’immigrazione clandestina fuori controllo rappresenta una minaccia concreta per la sicurezza dei confini europei.
Mi sono confrontata con il Ministro dell’Interno Matteo Piantedosi. L’Italia non resterà a guardare. Stiamo convocando gli organismi preposti, e all'esito di queste riunioni siamo pronti a intervenire anche con strumenti straordinari per difendere i confini e la sicurezza dei cittadini, come la sospensione dello spazio Schengen con la Spagna.
Sull’immigrazione clandestina non arretreremo di un millimetro: difendere i confini, fermare i trafficanti di esseri umani e garantire rimpatri efficaci continuerà a essere la linea di questo Governo.
Operation Blackout took down 4 of the largest scam compounds on earth.
$15.2 BILLION seized.
Thousands of trafficked workers freed.
8,000 internet terminals shut off.
10,000 Americans already saved from losing their life savings.
The mission is results.
The end.
😡 THE PROBLEM IS US! - We have now controlled the White House, the House, the Senate and the DOJ for almost two years.
How many Democrats who committed crimes during the Biden presidency are in jail? - None.
How many have been indicted? - None.
How many got a parking ticket? - None.
So the Democrats managed to impeach Trump twice and indict him four times but we can't even get a single indictment?
I think we need to take a long look in the mirror here.
According to a FoxNews poll, 25% of Texas Republicans are supporting Ken Paxton’s rival, James TalaFreako. How is that even possible? You don’t have to like everything Ken Paxton says or does. But WHICH candidate will work for:
• Closed borders
• Election integrity
• America 🇺🇸 First
• Pro growth
• Energy independence
James TalaFreako will push for open borders, men in women’s sports, America Last, the Green New Scam and try to remove President Trump from office.
The choice is clear: @KenPaxtonTX for U.S. Senate.

The Board of Peace and the mediating countries of Egypt, Qatar, Türkiye, and the United States today are pleased to announce that Hamas has agreed to a detailed Roadmap for implementing the next phases of the Gaza ceasefire.
The agreement concludes months of intensive, good faith negotiations to advance President Donald J. Trump's vision for establishing new governance, security, humanitarian relief, reconstruction, and economic recovery in Gaza as set out in the Comprehensive Peace Plan and U.N. Security Council Resolution 2803.
The Roadmap represents a historic breakthrough. For the first time, Hamas officially has committed to an actionable plan for relinquishing all its weapons, which will be followed by Israeli withdrawal from Gaza.
It holds the promise of delivering significant benefits to the people of Gaza, who have waited for too long for a better future, and security to the people of Israel.
Our focus now turns to implementation. The Board of Peace has worked closely with the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG). It will soon begin a phased transition toward full authority, backed by the International Stabilization Force (ISF), and will accelerate implementation of the rule of law, security, and humanitarian improvement in Gaza.
🚨 NOW: Stephen Miller says Democrats will force America into being invaded by barbarians THE SAME AS SPAIN — "and they will rejoice"
"Democrats will see your home trampled and stolen by invaders and they will rejoice."
"The Democrats did this to America every single day for 4 years under Biden and will do it again instantaneously, but orders of magnitude greater, if they are given any form of national power."
Secure borders are existential 🇺🇸🇺🇸
I’d love to keep the filibuster if senators invoking it were actually required to speak
It makes no sense to keep it when we don’t enforce the obligation to speak
Dems then use it to engage in unprecedented obstruction, shutting down DHS for months
Make them speak
Or nuke it
🚨 BREAKING UPDATE: Spain's Civil Guard chief declares the border has "TOTALLY COLLAPSED," per @BillMelugin_
THOUSANDS of military-aged African men have poured over the border in the past several hours.
This is because Spain just gave AMNESTY to illegals. All amnesty does is ENCOURAGE more illegal immigration.
DEI hire justice Ketanji Brown Jackson says she’s careful about which public engagements she accepts because she has to be impartial…. As she appears on MICHELLE OBAMA’s podcast
Can’t make this up 🤡
Remember when Democrats promised the Inflation Reduction Act would save taxpayers money?
CBO now says its Medicare Part D redesign is projected to add roughly $550 billion in costs.
One expensive miscalculation!
