The Latest: Trump announces deal for Hamas to disarm in Gaza, but hurdles and uncertainty remain

Hamas says it has reached an agreement to disarm. The significant move could help end the war in Gaza but will face many hurdles and could take a long time if ever to achieve. Israel has not commented on the deal, which President Donald Trump announced hours earlier in the day. Fighting has continued despite a ceasefire the U.S. brokered nine months ago. Trump is taking his Friday’s Cabinet meeting on the road to the Camp David presidential retreat in Maryland. And he remains bitter over moves by two Republican senators to put the brakes on acting Attorney General Todd Blanche’s nomination for the full-time post.
