    Netanyahu Insists on Hamas Disarmament Before Gaza Reconstruction

    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly stated his disagreement with the U.S.-backed plan to stabilize the situation in Gaza. He insists that Hamas must be completely disarmed and the Gaza Strip demilitarized before any reconstruction phase can begin. Netanyahu has confirmed these disagreements with U.S. President Donald Trump and the 'Board of Peace'. He has also rejected a proposal sent by the White House regarding Hamas' disarmament, stating that Israel did not agree with it and had submitted its own amendments. Israel will not withdraw from Gaza until Hamas disarms, according to Netanyahu.
