Hamas leader: Gaza roadmap we agreed to includes establishment of Palestinian state

Hamas leader Khalil al-Hayya stated that a proposed Gaza roadmap agreed to by the group includes provisions for the establishment of a Palestinian state. The announcement outlines a phased approach linking a ceasefire and regional independence.

When questioned regarding the group's armed wing, Hayya did not directly address whether Hamas would disarm. Instead, he indicated that the status of the group's weapons would be negotiated as part of a broader package tied to ceasefire implementation and Palestinian statehood.
