Israel Rejects Gaza Ceasefire Deal and Objects to International Force Proposal

Israel announced that it has not discussed the proposed Gaza cease‑fire agreement and raised objections to three of its clauses, stating it will not halt its attacks in the enclave. The Israeli government also signaled approval for the creation of an international stabilization force to monitor the implementation of any Gaza agreement, describing the move as a message to Washington. However, Israel objected to the participation of Turkey and Qatar in that force. Political analyst Tarek Fahmi noted that the Israeli stance does not imply a full withdrawal from Gaza and warned that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu could face removal if the Israeli Supreme Court rules against him. The United States, represented by former President Trump’s announcement, claimed a deal had been reached, but Israel’s reservations highlight ongoing tactical disagreements with Washington.
