The American concern over escalation in Gaza and the Peace Council's accusation: "Israel is not upholding the 20-point agreement"

The US fears a resumption of kite launches toward the Gaza envelope, which could harm the diplomatic process. Meanwhile, the Peace Council accuses Israel of not upholding the 20-point agreement, claiming this prevents pushing Hamas toward voluntary disarmament.

The United States fears a resumption of kite launches toward the Gaza envelope, against the backdrop of progress in implementing the roadmap and Hamas's agreement to disarm. A source familiar with the details told i24NEWS that the issue is being taken very seriously, as it could harm a process in which the Americans and other parties have invested enormous resources, including convincing Israel that Hamas's agreement to disarm has been received. Meanwhile, the Peace Council is pointing an accusing finger at Israel. A source in the council attacked and said: "Israel is not upholding the 20-point agreement and in fact does not allow pushing Hamas into a corner of voluntary disarmament or Israeli action with international backing." Ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Orit Strock turned to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ahead of the cabinet meeting, asking to ban the entry of a multinational force into Gaza before Hamas's disarmament and the complete demilitarization of the strip. At least four kites crossed the fence from the Gaza Strip in recent days. An IDF spokesman confirmed that the kites crossed the border but clarified that no suspicious findings were identified and no danger was posed to the public.
