Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has rejected US President Donald Trump’s 15-point Gaza peace proposal, stating Israeli forces will not withdraw until Hamas is “genuinely” disarmed.
The plan, overseen by the Board of Peace, proposes Hamas’s disarmament, the withdrawal of Israeli troops and Gaza’s reconstruction. Hamas said it remains committed to the agreement but maintains that handing over heavy weapons depends on Israel ending military operations and withdrawing its forces.
Key developments
- Benjamin Netanyahu ruled out an Israeli military withdrawal before Hamas is fully disarmed.
- Hamas said it is prepared to implement the agreement if all parties honour its terms.
- Israeli and US officials are continuing discussions on possible next steps.
- The disagreement adds uncertainty to ongoing efforts to secure a lasting Gaza ceasefire.
