[Israeli Media: Hamas and Mediators Make Progress on Disarmament] The Times of Israel reported on the 30th, citing Israeli officials, that negotiations currently underway in Cairo, Egypt, between the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) and mediators have made progress on disarmament. The report stated that the parties are working on a roadmap. This roadmap proposes a "balanced and pragmatic" path, including the disarmament of all weapons in the Gaza Strip, the phased transfer of responsibilities, and ultimately the transfer of all power to the Palestinian technocratic government. The report quoted Israeli officials as saying that this arrangement "will not make exceptions for certain weapons or personnel"; the roadmap outlines procedures for dismantling all tunnels, weapons storage facilities, and weapons production facilities. "All weapons" in the Gaza Strip will be under the full control of the Gaza National Administrative Council, with the coordination and support of international security forces. The official also said that the process is based on the "principle of reciprocity," with Israel responding accordingly for every commitment Hamas fulfills. (Xinhua)
