Israel has rejected a US-led 15-point Gaza disarmament plan while carrying out airstrikes in Khan Younis and southern Lebanon amid heightened regional tensions.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has formally rejected a 15-point Gaza disarmament framework put forward by a US-led peace committee, asserting that Hamas is using the proposal to stall military operations. Despite the rejection, Israeli officials authorized preliminary reconstruction efforts in southern Gaza.

Military strikes escalated across multiple fronts. In Khan Younis, Israeli forces killed a Hamas commander alleged to be planning an attack. Meanwhile, Israeli airstrikes targeted Tebnine and al-Mansouri in southern Lebanon during diplomatic negotiations in Rome, resulting in one death and 11 injuries after Israel cited Hezbollah ceasefire violations. Additionally, Iranian commanders warned of a response to potential foreign ground operations as US officials cited mounting economic pressure on Tehran.
