Israel rejects US Gaza plan accepted by Hamas

On 10 August 2026, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu publicly rejected the US-led 15-point Gaza peace plan that Hamas had accepted. He said Israel will not withdraw until Hamas disarms. Outlets described the rejection as a new break from Trump, and Trump said his relationship with Netanyahu remains 'very good' and teased a 'good response'. The Times of India's daily briefing wrote that Israel quietly began reconstruction.

Board of Peace envoy Mladenov said the plan is the only way to prevent another October 7 and that Hamas would not have agreed without Egypt and other mediators. Germany's foreign ministry said the plan could lead toward the disarmament of Hamas. Egypt sent its 253rd aid convoy to Gaza, carrying 4,346 tons.
