Netanyahu officially rejects the document, and the IDF documents 14 ceasefire violations in 24 hours.

Israeli political sources admit for the first time that there is a dispute between Jerusalem and Washington over the 15-point document for withdrawal from Gaza and the disarmament of Hamas, saying: 'If there is no choice, we will reach a confrontation with the Trump administration on Gaza.' Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu referred to the document for the first time today and officially announced that Israel rejects it: 'Israel rejects the 15-point document. The IDF will not carry out any withdrawal until Hamas is disarmed.' According to him, this is a real disarmament, not a fictitious one. In Jerusalem, they say that the one pushing for understandings is the president's advisor and son-in-law Jared Kushner, while Trump has so far not exerted direct pressure. Meanwhile, Israel transmits to the Americans a daily report detailing Hamas violations. According to the report, in the 24 hours between August 8 and 9, the IDF documented 14 ceasefire violations, 11 of which were classified as 'a developing threat to IDF forces.' Two incidents of weapons transfer and one incident of planting an explosive device were also documented. The document notes 95 unclassified violations in total. In the past week since the signing of the document, there have been no targeted killings in Gaza, and in response to a question from 'Hayom', it was stated that these are operational opportunities.
