- Netanyahu stated Israel "didn't agree" to the Board of Peace's terms for disarming Hamas, per the Times of Israel, rejecting the mediating body's framework rather than negotiating within it.
- Israel has conveyed concerns to the U.S. about Hamas disarmament, with the WSJ characterizing Trump's days-old deal as "already in danger" and the NYT reporting Netanyahu and Trump "may be at odds again" over the Gaza plan.
Why it matters: The Board of Peace's authority to mediate Gaza stabilization is being publicly rebuffed by Israel before any disarmament framework takes hold, fracturing U.S.-Israel coordination on the deal at its earliest stage. With the WSJ calling the agreement "days-old" and already imperiled, the practical path to Hamas disarmament narrows before negotiators can establish working terms.
