Benjamin Netanyahu rejects Trump's 15-point Gaza peace plan FAST-MOVING
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has rejected the 15-point Gaza peace roadmap proposed by US President Donald Trump. During a cabinet meeting, Netanyahu clarified that the Israel Defense Forces will not withdraw from the Gaza Strip until Hamas has undergone a "genuine" disarmament involving all weaponry, including light arms.
The rejected plan, brokered by the US-led Board of Peace, outlines a phased approach where Hamas would surrender weapons to a new Palestinian governing body in exchange for an Israeli military withdrawal and regional reconstruction. While Hamas has expressed its "firm commitment" to implementing the plan, Netanyahu's refusal creates a significant diplomatic impasse between Israel and the Trump administration.
Netanyahu also reaffirmed his opposition to the establishment of a Palestinian state during his premiership. Political analysts suggest the rejection may be driven by domestic pressures to maintain his right-wing governing coalition ahead of upcoming elections.
