Israel has rejected Trump’s 15-point proposal for Gaza, according to Prime Minister Netanyahu, who said the country’s military would not withdraw from the territory until Hamas is “genuinely” disarmed.
The position sets out a central condition from the Israeli government: any pull-out by its forces from Gaza is dependent on Hamas being disarmed in a way Israel accepts as real and effective.
Netanyahu’s comments indicate that Israel does not regard the proposal as sufficient in its current form. The source material does not provide the details of the 15-point plan, nor does it set out which specific elements Israel has rejected beyond the stated condition on Hamas’s disarmament.
The statement comes amid continued scrutiny of any proposal aimed at determining Gaza’s future and the role of Israeli forces there. On the information available, Israel’s latest stated position is that its military presence in Gaza will continue unless Hamas is “genuinely” disarmed.
