The U.S. Board of Peace assured Israel that troops will not leave Gaza until Hamas fully disarms, following security concerns raised by Prime Minister Netanyahu.

The U.S. Board of Peace has assured Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Israeli forces will not withdraw from Gaza until Hamas fully completes its disarmament. The clarification follows formal security objections raised by Israel regarding a proposed framework that called for an immediate end to strikes and a phased troop exit.

U.S. President Donald Trump had previously stated that Israel fully supported the arrangement. While Hamas representatives indicated tentative agreement to hand over weapons, they insisted implementation depends on initial actions by Israel.

Concurrently, residents in Gaza expressed skepticism regarding the diplomatic initiative, describing it as "out of touch" amid ongoing military action. Recent Israeli air strikes reportedly killed 18 people in Gaza, raising further doubts about the feasibility of the proposed cease-fire framework.
