In a significant shift, Hamas leader Khalil al-Hayya has reportedly adopted a harder stance on disarmament in negotiations with a senior Trump administration official, Aryeh Lightstone. The development comes as the Israeli government continues to push for the Palestinian militant group to disarm as a condition for potential peace talks. According to Israeli sources, al-Hayya's tougher line may indicate a renewed commitment to Hamas's long-held resistance to disarmament, which has been a major point of contention in past peace negotiations. The implications of this move could have far-reaching consequences for the fragile peace process in the region.
