Technocrat committee controlling Gaza to collect illegal weapons and integrate those carrying the weapons into Gaza police force
Official PA TV host: "How can we prevent [Israeli Prime Minister] Netanyahu and his government from having the [Gaza] crossings turn into a means of extortion, in light of Netanyahu's insistence on what he calls the disarmament clause?" …
Deputy Director of the Tafkir Center for Political Affairs Hani Al-Jamal: "Weapons collection will be carried out within the framework of the law. Maybe one of the main tasks that will be assigned to this [Palestinian] technocrat committee [controlling Gaza] will be the taking or confiscation of weapons. Those who held weapons illegally- I believe we all agreed on these restrictions, which state that anyone who holds illegal weapons in the Gaza Strip must hand them over, and I believe that the technocrat committee has announced this – either there will be [a possibility of] a safe exit for those carrying weapons or they will be integrated into the Palestinian police force and benefit from their experience in this field."
