Israel challenges peace talks from Gaza to West Bank
The article addresses the contrasting positions of Israel regarding the implementation of post-war arrangements in Gaza. The government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu refuses to allow an international stabilizing force to enter until Hamas is completely disarmed, and emphasizes that reconstruction will not begin until this condition is met. In contrast, the United States is preparing to support funding exceeding $206 million for the stabilization force, with some Arab countries such as Egypt and Jordan welcoming training arrangements for Palestinian forces. Meanwhile, settlement activities in the West Bank are escalating, with tenders issued to build over 1,200 residential units within the "E1" project, drawing international objections—particularly from Britain and France—who call for a halt to settlement expansion. These developments indicate that the Israeli government is moving toward consolidating control over Palestinian territories, amidst various international pressures to end the escalation and pave the way for implementing the peace plan, withdrawal arrangements, and reconstruction efforts in Gaza.
