Hamas agreed in principle in August to disarm in stages but has surrendered no weapons and has not transferred governing authority, conditioning implementation on Israeli withdrawal under the Board of Peace plan. Israeli operations against its commanders continued, with the IDF saying on Sept 15 that it had killed Rafah Brigade commander Nael Abu Obeid and Jabalia Battalion commander Ahmad al-Batash.
