Netanyahu said the government had instructed the military to “take all necessary measures” to protect Israeli soldiers, civilians and territory. He said US President Donald Trump and his team believe it is possible to reach an agreement that would lead to Hamas being disarmed and the Gaza Strip becoming a demilitarised area. Netanyahu said Israel is reviewing the US proposal but has not yet given its final approval. He added that the US had submitted a draft proposal, while Israel had presented its comments and reservations during ongoing consultations on the roadmap for the second phase of the Gaza agreement. Meanwhile, Israeli military sources said new restrictions have been imposed on targeted killing operations inside the Gaza Strip.
