shiningfractalCertainly. Here is the rewritten version of the ceasefire and disarmament proposal, preserving its formal tone and structure but without the use of tables:
DRAFT AGREEMENT FOR CEASEFIRE, DISARMAMENT, AND HUMANITARIAN STABILIZATION IN GAZA
Proposed Framework for Regional and International Stakeholders
CONFIDENTIAL – For Diplomatic Review Only
Date: April 29, 2025
Parties Involved:
The De Facto Authorities in Gaza Mediating States: Arab Republic of Egypt, State of Qatar, Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, Republic of Turkey Observing Parties: United Nations, Arab League, European Union Indirect Engagement Partner: State of Israel I. Preamble
This agreement is founded on the shared recognition of the urgent need to halt hostilities, restore essential humanitarian services, and initiate a sustainable pathway toward stability and disarmament in Gaza. The approach is sequenced, pragmatic, and respectful of each party’s security concerns, with strong regional facilitation and international oversight.
II. Core Commitments
The parties agree to an immediate and unconditional ceasefire, to take effect as soon as the agreement is signed. Within the first four days of the ceasefire, all hostages—both civilian and military—held in Gaza will be released in full. This release will be coordinated with the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA).
Israel commits to refraining from any military incursions into Gaza throughout the six-month disarmament and stabilization period. Aerial surveillance will be restricted to non-intrusive activities, and all operations will be subject to UN monitoring and reporting.
III. Phased Implementation
Phase 1: Ceasefire and Observation (Weeks 1–2)
The ceasefire enters into force. Hostages are released. UN and Arab League observers are deployed to monitor compliance. Armed groups suspend all public movements with weapons, and humanitarian corridors are reopened under UN coordination.
Phase 2: Arms Geolocation and Transparency (Weeks 3–6)
Armed groups submit confidential geotagged inventories of all heavy weaponry to a trusted mediation team. Combatants retain unloaded personal weapons, subject to registration and oversight.
Phase 3: Ordnance Relocation and Buyback (Weeks 7–16)
Heavy weapons are transported out of Gaza under Arab League supervision and placed under joint Egyptian-Qatari custody. A voluntary buyback program is launched to compensate individuals for turning in personal weapons, with funding administered by Qatar in collaboration with international partners.
Phase 4: Civil Integration and Reconstruction (Months 5–6)
Combatants are offered structured reintegration through civil service training (police, firefighting, rescue services). The UN Development Programme (UNDP) begins coordinated reconstruction of damaged infrastructure, with engineering and logistical support from Egypt and Jordan.
IV. Oversight and Guarantees
Mediation between Gaza and Israel shall occur exclusively through indirect channels hosted by neutral parties in Doha, Cairo, or Amman. A rotating force of Arab peacekeepers with a UN mandate will oversee all arms transfers and ceasefire compliance.
To safeguard the process, a "snapback mechanism" will be activated in the event of major violations, triggering the suspension of aid and reconstruction efforts.
All parties retain full narrative sovereignty regarding how they present the process to their domestic audiences, provided all terms of the agreement are honored.
V. End-State Vision
At the conclusion of six months, Gaza is to be fully demilitarized under the protection of a neutral Arab-led international peacekeeping force, with governance structures restored, civil society reactivated, and reconstruction firmly underway. The process is designed to create a political and humanitarian opening for broader peace-building efforts in the region.
For Initial Signature and Endorsement (Pending Final Review):
Representative of the De Facto Authorities in Gaza Envoy of the State of Qatar Delegate of the Arab Republic of Egypt United Nations Special Coordinator Observer on behalf of the State of Israel (indirect)
