The U.S. president's proposal for ending the Gaza war lacks a clear path toward implementation and measurable goals. Indeed, people close to the Israeli prime minister say he won't need to thwart it, since parts are in any case unfeasible

• ‘This is not our document’, says Dar about White House plan; sticks to joint statement from Muslim bloc • Reveals Indonesia has committed 20,000 troops; Islamabad expected to make a decision soon • Axios claims Netanyahu negotiated changes to draft agreed between Trump, Muslim leaders • US president gives Hamas ‘three to four days’ to agree to deal; insiders say group will ‘likely reject’ proposal ISLAMABAD / WASHI­N­GTON: A day after US President Donald Trump unveiled his ambitious plan to end the war in Ga­za, signs have began to emerge that not everyone is happy with the draft made public by White House. This was evident from Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar’s presser on Tuesday, where he made it clear in so many words that the US peace plan for Gaza would not be acceptable if the am­e­ndments — jointly pro­posed by eight Muslim co­u­n­tries — were not included. The “document has been issued by the US”, he said, seemingly distancing Pakistani decision-makers from the plan, even though Trump has previously clai...

Israeli army officials worry about clashes that could erupt with protesters, including Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, on the Global Sumud Flotilla's ships as they near Gaza. Italy's Meloni has called for a halt, despite all parties – including Israel's navy – promising to forgo violence during the takeover once the aid for the Palestinian enclave reaches Israeli waters

According to the Gaza Health Ministry, only one person has died from hunger in the past ten days, as opposed to several each day. Data also shows a sharp drop in food prices across the Strip. Aid workers in Gaza also say the rate of Palestinians leaving Gaza City has slowed

Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar said on Tuesday that the Gaza peace agreement is being opposed for political motives, questioning whether critics wish for the killing of innocent civilians to persist.

Trump realized Netanyahu was determined to block any deal and had grown weary of his empty talk. He compelled him to apologize to Qatar's prime minister and unveiled a plan to end the Gaza war, each clause a regional drama. After receiving only lukewarm praise from the president, Netanyahu now returns to face turmoil in his coalition

Since the war broke out on October 7, 2023, Netanyahu has disrupted Gaza cease-fire talks and agreements in a variety of ways. The question now is whether he will also choose to do so in an election year

Trump and Netanyahu say they’ve agreed to a plan to end the war in Gaza, but it’s unclear whether Hamas will accept the terms.

A forced apology in the first act, a 20-point plan very light on specifics - and the hovering feeling that Netanyahu will get yet another chance to prolong the Gaza war

According to the White House plan, the IDF will hand over the parts of Gaza it controls to an international force, which will 'immediately deploy in Gaza.' Trump says he will head Gaza's international 'Board of Peace', overseeing Palestinian technocrats who will temporarily govern the postwar Strip

U.S. President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu presented Trump's 'New Gaza' plan to end the war in Gaza and release the hostages. Trump promised Israel will be 'fully backed' if Hamas does not adhere to the plan

While the recognition by several Western nations was widely welcomed, many say the gesture is meaningless without an end to war and famine in Gaza. 'Someone who can't find a shelter, with death surrounding him, doesn't have the luxury to care about a state,' said one Gaza City resident

Netanyahu faces rising dissent from far-right allies over Trump's Gaza plan, with Smotrich warning any compromise on Palestinian statehood is a red line that 'would endanger Israel's existence' and Ben-Gvir insisting the war cannot end without Hamas' total defeat

After reviewing Trump's official cease-fire proposal, Palestinian sources worry that a transitional international authority could establish permanent rule over Gaza, and that even after the war ends, military operations could resume under the guise of a 'security threat'

Tens of thousands marched in Berlin calling to stop “genocide,” end German arms to Israel, and allow Gaza aid. Police reported 60,000 attendees, organizers said 100,000.

Since the October 7 Hamas attacks, the Jewish people have been blinded by our rage and by our trauma. We must raise our voices to demand a cessation of the violence and annihilation being perpetrated against Palestinians in Gaza

The new American proposal to end the Gaza war and free the hostages, and Monday's meeting between the U.S. president and the Israeli prime minister, will both be disastrous failures unless Trump convinces Hamas and the world that Netanyahu takes orders from him, not the other way around

As Italian parliament members sail toward Gaza on the flotilla, an estimated 700 foreign ministry employees called on Italy to take measures against Israel and protect the flotilla, days after a nationwide general strike and day of protest in solidarity with Gaza

In a Fox News interview, the prime minister also expressed doubts that a reformed Palestinian Authority could govern postwar Gaza, a topic that, according to a diplomatic source, will be discussed in Monday's meeting with Trump amid Netanyahu's firm opposition to any PA role in the territory

Netanyahu's visit to the White House on Monday, when he will discuss Trump's 21-point plan for Gaza, will be his fourth meeting this year with Trump. But this time, at least on the Israeli side, the script hasn't been written in advance
