Benjamin Netanyahu says "Israel does not accept the ‘15-point document.’" on Gaza plan
“Israel does not accept the ‘15-point document.’”
Reported August 13, 2026 by stcatharinesstandard.ca. Checked word for word against that report.
After President Donald Trump announced a Gaza proposal, Israel’s prime minister publicly rejected it. Benjamin Netanyahu made that statement Sunday, according to a report. Trump had described the arrangement as a significant move toward peace, and Hamas had accepted it through mediators, the report says. The plan reportedly requires Hamas to give up its weapons and Israel to withdraw entirely from Gaza. The refusal came days after Israeli strikes killed 18 Palestinians, according to the report. Netanyahu is facing an election in two months and depends on far-right allies who oppose any withdrawal, the article says. It adds that the issue is unlikely to move forward before Israel votes.
