Hamas rejected claims on Sunday that it agreed to immediate disarmament under President Donald Trump's ceasefire proposal. The militant group called the reports fabricated after media outlets cited anonymous sources stating Hamas would surrender weapons to a Palestinian-Egyptian authority under international oversight. The organization insisted it communicates positions through official channels only.

Hamas on Friday accepted parts of Trump's plan but did not address weapons. Senior official Mousa Abu Marzook told Al Jazeera that the group would transfer arms only to a future Palestinian state. The organization agreed to release Israeli hostages, but said whoever governs Gaza must retain armed control.

The conflict began after Hamas attacked southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, killing at least 1,200 people and taking 250 hostages. Israeli operations have killed more than 68,000 Palestinians and displaced most of Gaza's two million residents. Roughly 50 hostages remain in captivity, with about half believed alive.
