US-Israel-Iran War Latest Live News: Israel has strongly resisted calls for any immediate pulling out of its troops from Gaza regardless of the latest proposed ceasefire that has been endorsed by President Donald Trump of the US. Israel PM Benjamin Netanyahu has said clearly that Israel’s forces would not withdraw until Hamas gives up all its arms and cannot attack any more. This move clearly shows how suspicious both parties are towards each other.
US-Israel-Iran War Latest Live News: Israel Links Military Exit to Hamas Disarmament
The Israeli government claims that it will pose a serious security threat for Israel to pull out troops before Hamas gets disarmed completely. As per the Israeli government, Hamas is building its military infrastructure by recruiting fighters, repairing underground tunnels and acquiring weapons. The Israeli government fears that any military withdrawal at this stage can make Hamas reign again and launch another attack like the one launched on October 7, 2023.
“Our assessment is that if we redeploy before Hamas is truly disarmed, it will quickly expand its presence throughout Gaza, rebuild its terrorist infrastructure, once again threaten Israeli communities, and seek to carry out another Oct. 7-style attack,” he said.
“Disarming means physically giving up the weapons. Nothing less,” he added.

The US-sponsored plan for a ceasefire is laid out on the lines of a road map that seeks to bring to an end months of conflict.

US-Israel-Iran War Latest Live News: Whats Next in Ongoing Conflict
Israel’s call for full Hamas disarmament is based on its own security concerns in the wake of the October 7, 2023, attack in which 1,200 people were killed and 251 others were held hostage. Meanwhile, the humanitarian situation in Gaza cries out for international help as well. Long-term peace might be dependent on much more than military success or political agreements. Security assurances, humanitarian aid, good governance and diplomacy from regional and international players might all be needed. A ceasefire that doesn’t take into account all of these factors will likely be just a brief respite in a conflict that shapes the region.
