Israel rejected a US-backed post-war Gaza plan while carrying out strikes in Khan Younis and southern Lebanon amid ongoing regional tensions.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu officially rejected a US-backed 15-point disarmament plan for post-war Gaza, maintaining that Hamas would use the proposal to stall military operations. Despite rejecting the framework, Israeli authorities quietly authorized initial reconstruction efforts in southern Gaza.

Simultaneously, an Israel Defense Forces strike in Khan Younis killed a Hamas commander accused of preparing an attack. In southern Lebanon, Israeli bombardments targeted Tebnine and al-Mansouri during ongoing ceasefire discussions in Rome, leaving one person dead and 11 wounded.

Regionally, US President Donald Trump emphasized mounting economic pressure on Tehran, while Iranian military leaders warned of decisive countermeasures against any potential ground incursions.
