Israel has rejected US President Donald ​Trump’s Board of Peace 15-point ‌plan for Gaza, and will not withdraw until Hamas fully ​disarms, Prime Minister Benjamin ​Netanyahu said on Sunday.

Trump announced last ⁠month that there had ​been a breakthrough in his ​plan to end the war, which both Israel and Hamas agreed to ​last year and which ​started with the ceasefire.

Israel has continued ‌to carry out strikes on Gaza since agreeing to the ceasefire last October.

Trump said that ​Hamas, which ​ruled ⁠Gaza for nearly two decades before carrying out ​the October 7, 2023, ​attack on Israel, had agreed ⁠to ​lay down its ​weapons.
