📝 NigeriaNewsFeed Summary
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has publicly stated that Israel did not agree to the US-backed Gaza plan, despite assurances that an Israeli withdrawal would only occur after Hamas disarms. In a video posted on social media, Netanyahu emphasized that while the US team believes in the potential for Hamas disarmament, the draft they provided was not accepted by Israel. Pressure is mounting from the right-wing factions within his coalition, with two ministers demanding a new vote on the plan, arguing it doesn't align with prior discussions. The Israeli security cabinet had previously approved the proposal, which includes the deployment of international peacekeeping troops in Gaza. Netanyahu's postponement of a security cabinet meeting, originally scheduled for Tuesday, has been linked to ongoing primary elections in his Likud Party. Analysts suggest that the right-wing's push for a new vote is more of a political maneuver than a genuine policy shift, as Israel faces significant international isolation. Ultimately, Netanyahu may have limited options and must navigate the delicate balance of US diplomatic pressure and internal coalition dynamics.
