Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the weekly government meeting that Israel rejects the 15-point peace plan, reiterating that the IDF will not withdraw from the Gaza Strip until Hamas is fully disarmed, according to the Prime Minister's Office.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu explicitly rejected the 15-point peace plan at the weekly government meeting on Sunday, hours after reports of the plan surfaced. The Prime Minister stated that the IDF will not carry out any withdrawal from the Gaza Strip until Hamas is completely disarmed, and that the military will continue to thwart threats against Israeli forces and citizens.
As The Zioneer reported earlier at 14:37, Netanyahu had already signaled the no-withdrawal condition at the opening of the meeting. The current statement, delivered at 14:52, formalizes the rejection of the diplomatic proposal. The government's position follows a warning from the Heroic Forum, representing bereaved Israeli families, which earlier Sunday welcomed the reported rejection and vowed to oppose any steps that do not include full Hamas disarmament.
The 15-point plan, which has been circulating in diplomatic channels, appears to have been flatly rejected by the Prime Minister, who has consistently insisted on the complete disarmament of Hamas as a precondition for any Israeli withdrawal from Gaza.
