Israel agreed to a ceasefire with Hamas.
In October 2025, a ceasefire was established in the Gaza Strip. Under the US-brokered agreement, the disarmament of Hamas and the handover of power to an independent Palestinian administration were required.
The roadmap for peace proposed that a complete Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip would be tied to the simultaneous disarmament process. According to the Board of Peace, the withdrawal of the IDF beyond the yellow line would occur once the decommissioning of weapons and tunnels, as committed to by mediators, was complete.

The US-brokered Board of Peace was established.
Earlier this year, a US-brokered Board of Peace was established to oversee peace processes. The Board's roadmap proposed that a complete Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip be tied to a disarmament process, suggesting the two actions would occur simultaneously.
The Board of Peace modified its conditions for an Israeli withdrawal following meetings between its officials and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. It stated that the withdrawal of the IDF beyond the yellow line would only occur once the decommissioning of light weapons, heavy weapons, and tunnels, as committed to by Hamas, was complete.
