Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has formally rejected the US-led Peace Committee's 15-point post-war plan for Gaza.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has formally rejected a 15-point post-war plan proposed by the US-led Peace Committee for Gaza's disarmament. Speaking at a cabinet meeting, Netanyahu stated, "I want to make clear here. Israel rejects the 15-point document." Israeli officials expressed concern that Hamas accepted the framework primarily to stall further Israeli military operations.

The rejection comes alongside reports that the Peace Committee awarded its first Gaza construction contract to US firm Arkel International to build a temporary military base for 150 Moroccan peacekeepers, rather than housing for displaced residents. Meanwhile, violence persisted in the West Bank, where armed Israeli settlers set fire to homes in Khirbet a-Tuba, leaving several Palestinians injured.
