Palestinian Factions Endorse Technocrat Rule for Gaza and UN Peacekeepers

Implementation remains unsettled pending external approvals after Egypt-mediated talks in Cairo.

Overview

  • According to a joint statement published by Hamas, factions agreed to transfer Gaza’s day-to-day administration to a temporary Palestinian committee of independent technocrats.
  • The proposed committee would manage basic services in coordination with Arab countries and international institutions.
  • Hamas said participants supported seeking a UN resolution to deploy peacekeepers in Gaza to monitor a ceasefire.
  • The factions backed creating a special international commission to oversee financing and implementation of Gaza’s reconstruction.
  • The statement called for revitalizing the PLO as the sole legitimate representative, as Hamas and Fatah held Cairo talks on a US-backed ceasefire plan with Egyptian intelligence engagement and no signatory list released.
