No one has managed the balancing act longer than Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel’s longest-serving leader. Netanyahu risks angering Trump, who he has repeatedly said is the greatest friend Israel has ever had in the White House. Netanyahu rejected the plan, saying Israel would not retreat from any of its positions in Gaza until Hamas has been completely disarmed. The Israeli military did not respond to a request for comment. “There have been some results on the ground in the last few days,” the official added, including “restraint from strikes” and new Israeli military procedures.
