Trump says Hamas temporarily serving as Gaza police under U.S.-brokered ceasefire deal.
Trump said on October 13, 2025, while en route to the Middle East, that Hamas had been granted temporary approval to serve as a police force in Gaza as part of the first phase of a U.S.-brokered ceasefire.
He cited the need for stability as Palestinians return to damaged areas after two years of war, noting the group’s cooperation in the initial agreement that saw all living and deceased Israeli hostages released in exchange for nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners and a partial Israeli troop withdrawal.
Trump confirmed the final 20 living hostages were returned and said negotiations for phase two had begun, though details were not provided.
While his broader peace plan calls for Hamas disarmament and exclusion from governance, those terms are not part of the initial phase.
The White House has not commented.
