Summary

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected a 15-point document regarding Gaza, stating Israel will not withdraw until Hamas is disarmed. He explicitly linked this stance to the broader conflict with Iran, asserting that Israel will prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons regardless of US-Iran diplomatic outcomes. This reinforces Israel's hardline position on both the Gaza war and the regional nuclear threat.
