Gaza reconstruction unclear after Netanyahu's rejection
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's rejection of the American plan sponsored by President Trump, which includes 15 provisions to end the war in Gaza and rebuild the sector through disarming Hamas and halting Israeli military presence, reflects tactical hesitation and aims to buy time before the elections. This rejection threatens the completion of the second phase of the ceasefire agreement, as Netanyahu's stance appears driven by concerns over the collapse of the coalition government and electoral reactions. It also hampers reconstruction efforts and the attainment of stability in Gaza. The repercussions of this refusal will extend to ongoing deadlock in Gaza, an escalation of the humanitarian crisis, and the division of the sector into isolated areas, with potential for military operations. Amidst American hesitation to apply direct pressure on Israel out of fear of damaging relations, this stance also strengthens Hamas, which benefits from the deadlock to rebuild its capabilities, undermines peace efforts, and limits the prospects for establishing a sovereign Palestinian state, thereby deepening Palestinian division.
