Hamas Dissolves Gaza Government, Hands Power to Technocrat Committee

Hamas has announced its most significant step yet toward withdrawing from civilian governance in Gaza. The group dissolved its administrative body and agreed to transfer control to a committee of technocrats. This move is part of a ceasefire and transition plan accepted in October 2025 under a U.S.-led initiative. However, the dissolution does not mean Hamas will give up its military power. The group retains its armed wing. The decision marks a political shift but leaves the question of future security arrangements unresolved.
