Trump Gaza Framework Stalls Amid Israeli Resistance

The proposal, unveiled by Donald Trump last month, hinges on a volatile trade-off: the comprehensive disarmament of Hamas in exchange for a complete Israeli exit from the territory. While both Hamas and the Israeli government initially signaled a tentative alignment with the framework—which includes the deployment of an International Stabilization Force—the consensus has since fractured.

Netanyahu’s recent televised address solidified his opposition to the withdrawal terms, even as the Israel Defense Forces observe a tactical pause under heavy international and American pressure. According to a Board of Peace official, the primary hurdle remains the lack of a defined timeline for execution. Current diplomatic efforts are now focused on establishing ground-level security guarantees that can survive the skepticism of both Israeli leadership and local militant factions.
