The official characterized the arrangement as a difficult but unavoidable step taken amid the territory's deepening humanitarian and security crisis. The negotiator argued that the move, despite its political sensitivity within Palestinian factions, was required to stabilize conditions on the ground.

The statement did not specify the accord's terms, implementation timeline, or which international or regional parties helped broker the arrangement. The comments came as Gaza faces ongoing instability and competing pressures from armed groups operating within the enclave.
