Israel Rejects Trump's Peace Plan: Continued Tensions in Gaza
Israel has declined U.S. President Donald Trump’s 15-point Board of Peace plan for Gaza, as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu insists on the full disarmament of Hamas before any withdrawal. Despite a ceasefire agreement last year, Israel continues its military operations in Gaza, following attacks on October 7, 2023.

In a significant geopolitical development, Israel has rejected U.S. President Donald Trump's 15-point Board of Peace plan aimed at resolving conflict in Gaza. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated his government would not withdraw until Hamas fully disarms.
Last month, President Trump announced a breakthrough in his peace plan, claiming both Israel and Hamas had agreed to a ceasefire last year. However, Israel has maintained military operations in Gaza, insisting on more concrete action from Hamas.
The ongoing conflict intensified after Hamas, which governed Gaza for nearly two decades, launched an attack on Israel on October 7, 2023. This has led to renewed hostilities, highlighting the fragile nature of peace efforts in the region.
