Collective analysis by ACW experts looks at the Arab plan for post-war Gaza, introduced at the Cairo Summit, calling for the Palestinian Authority to govern the Strip in place of Hamas and for reconstruction without displacement. It highlights regional support for the plan, but notes widespread skepticism over the PA’s legitimacy, doubts about funding, Egypt and Jordan’s political stakes, and the Trump administration’s outright rejection of the proposal.
