Israel has formally rejected a 15-point Gaza ceasefire roadmap, even as the US-led Peace Council announced the start of the agreement's second phase.

Israel's Security Cabinet has rejected a 15-point roadmap intended to guide the second phase of the Gaza ceasefire, formally notifying the United States that the current draft is unacceptable. The framework, negotiated involving Egypt and Hamas, outlines an end to military operations, a phased withdrawal of Israeli troops, and the transfer of administrative and security duties to a technocratic Palestinian committee.

Despite Israel's rejection, the US-led Peace Council announced the transition into the ceasefire's second phase. Concurrently, reports indicate that the council's first construction tender in Gaza involves building a military installation to house roughly 150 Moroccan personnel serving as part of an international stabilization contingent.
