Trump Demands Hamas Disarm Amid Brutal Gaza Crackdown Trump demands Hamas disarm as the militant group launches a harsh campaign against alleged collaborators in the Gaza Strip, deepening tensions in the war-torn region. Former U.S. President Donald Trump warned that the United States would take steps to disarm Hamas “violently” if the group refused to surrender its weapons. Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Trump said Hamas must disarm within “a reasonable period of time,” though he did not specify a deadline. His comments follow shocking footage circulating online showing Hamas executions and violent crackdowns across Gaza City. The videos, verified by independent analysts, revealed public shootings of suspected informants as Hamas seeks to reassert control since the recent US-brokered ceasefire. Hamas Moves Against Alleged Collaborators Hamas has accused several groups and families of cooperating with Israel and vowed to crush “lawlessness.” Witnesses reported armed fighters parading through Gaza’s streets, executing men accused of espionage and intimidating rivals. One widely shared clip showed Hamas fighters lining up eight men before a crowd and shooting them, while bystanders shouted “collaborators.” Local residents expressed deep concern over the chaos. A lawyer in Gaza condemned the killings, calling them “lawlessness, not resistance.” Activists warned that executions without fair trials violate international law and only fuel fear among civilians. Clans Challenge Hamas Control Experts note that Hamas’s crackdown is partly aimed at reasserting dominance over rival clans such as the Dughmush family, which has long clashed with Hamas over control of smuggling routes and local militias. These armed groups, some reportedly supported by Israel, have expanded their power as Hamas’s authority weakened during the conflict. Political analyst Professor Fawaz Gerges from the London School of Economics explained that Hamas is using its internal security forces to “mobilize and consolidate control” over Gaza. He added that without restoring security, “no aid or stability can return to Gaza.” US Reaction and Regional Tension Despite his tough talk, Trump’s Gaza statement acknowledged the complex situation. He said Hamas’s show of force was “approved for a period of time” to prevent chaos as millions of displaced residents return home. Analysts suggest Washington quietly tolerates some Hamas activity to maintain order following Israel’s withdrawal. As the Gaza conflict enters another volatile phase, the balance of power between Hamas, rival militias, and Israel remains fragile. For many Palestinians, the immediate concern is survival amid insecurity, damaged infrastructure, and the struggle for basic needs. The call that Trump demands Hamas disarm underscores the U.S.’s renewed interest in shaping post-war Gaza, but whether Hamas complies—or escalates—remains uncertain.
