Israel has voiced “serious security concerns” to the White House regarding a proposed disarmament deal with Hamas, according to an Israeli official. Doron Spielman, spokesperson for the Israeli Prime Minister's office, told The Associated Press that Israel’s intelligence assessment indicates Hamas remains committed to rebuilding its military capabilities rather than genuinely demilitarizing.
The Israeli concerns were shared with the White House shortly after President Donald Trump announced the agreement earlier this week. While details of the proposed deal remain limited, Israel fears it does not adequately address the potential for Hamas to rearm and pose a future threat. The assessment from the Prime Minister’s office suggests that any disarmament by Hamas is likely a tactic to regroup and strengthen its forces.
No right-leaning outlets reported on the specifics of Israel's concerns beyond relaying the initial announcement of the deal, leaving unaddressed whether those outlets share similar reservations about the agreement’s viability.
