Senior leaders of the Hamas terror group are preparing a “safe exit” from the Gaza Strip, sources within the terror group revealed to Saudi outlet Asharq al-Awsat on Tuesday. This comes after the US announced the start of Phase II of US President Donald Trump’s Gaza peace plan, which calls for establishing a technocratic government to administer the Strip.
Several “prominent political and military leaders who survived the war” are preparing to leave, three Hamas sources told the outlet. One of the sources claimed that the departure would be “voluntary and carried out under specific arrangements, with full coordination with Hamas leadership abroad,” the outlet reported. Another stated that other leadership, particularly “military figures, categorically reject leaving Gaza under any circumstances.”
