Hamas seeks to include its forces in a U.S.-backed Gaza administration, but U.S. and Israel oppose any Hamas role.

As talks over disarmament and governance continue, several sources claim that Hamas is attempting to incorporate its 10,000-person police force and tens of thousands of civil servants into a Palestinian government supported by the United States for Gaza. The plan calls for the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG) to assume control under U.S. leadership and is linked to a 20-point peace framework mediated by President Donald Trump, requiring Hamas to give up power and disarm. Hamas insists on including its personnel to prevent instability, while Israel and the U.S. cite Hamas's classification as a terrorist organization as justification for opposing any involvement. The role of Sami Nasman, a former Palestinian Authority official appointed to head security, and the possibility of amnesty for Hamas fighters under a long-term ceasefire are two major unresolved issues. Direct negotiations between Hamas and NCAG leadership have not taken place, and no official disarmament proposal has been made.
