Israel says Hamas 'will be disarmed'

Israel said on Thursday that Hamas "will be disarmed" as part of the US-sponsored peace plan for Gaza, after a top leader from the group suggested a weapons freeze.
"There will be no future for Hamas under the 20-point plan," the Israeli official told AFP, adding that the group will be disarmed and Gaza will be demilitarised.
Hamas's Khaled Meshaal told Qatari news channel Al Jazeera on Wednesday that the group is open to a weapons "freeze", but rejects the demand for disarmament put forward in US President Donald Trump's plan for Gaza.
