Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected a 15-point Gaza disarmament plan while regional strikes and tensions with Iran continue.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu officially rejected a US-backed 15-point disarmament plan for Gaza, asserting that Hamas intended to use the framework to stall military operations. However, Israeli leadership quietly authorized initial reconstruction efforts in southern Gaza.

On the ground, an Israel Defense Forces strike in Khan Younis killed a Hamas commander accused of planning an attack. Simultaneously, Israeli bombardments targeted Tebnine and al-Mansouri in southern Lebanon during ceasefire negotiations in Rome, leaving one dead and 11 wounded. Israel cited Hezbollah ceasefire violations for the strikes.

In regional developments, US President Donald Trump noted growing economic pressure on Tehran, while Iranian military officials warned of severe responses to any potential ground incursions.
