In a cabinet meeting on Sunday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu unequivocally rejected the 15-point peace plan proposed by U.S. President Donald Trump for Gaza, emphasizing that Israel would not withdraw forces until Palestinian militant group Hamas fully disarms. This stance was taken in response to a US-led Board of Peace's statement last week, which suggested an Israeli withdrawal from Gaza only after the complete disarmament of Hamas. Netanyahu underscored that Israel is currently engaging in discussions with the Americans regarding this issue and expressed his intention to stand firm on the matter. The rejection of the peace plan raises serious concerns for Palestinians about the prospect of a resolution to ongoing hostilities, while potentially creating challenges for the Board of Peace and its mediators in carrying out Hamas's disarmament. Since agreeing to a ceasefire with Hamas last October, Israel has continued near-daily deadly attacks across Gaza, resulting in over 1,250 fatalities and 4,120 injuries as per the Gaza Health Ministry. The ongoing violence calls into question Israel's commitment to upholding the agreed ceasefire and achieving lasting peace in the region.
