Hamas says won’t surrender arms but only police will carry weapons in Gaza

In an exclusive interview with Al Jazeera, Hamas political bureau member Husam Badran stated that the group will not hand over its weapons for now. He proposed that when the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG) takes over, only official Palestinian police weapons would be visible, with no armed manifestations. Badran clarified this is not a formal surrender but a solution to be discussed within a national framework. Hamas is preparing to send a delegation to Cairo for renewed ceasefire talks.
