TEL AVIV, August 9. /TASS/. Israel will seek to implement the "five principles for ending the war" in the Gaza Strip that were approved last year, adviser in the Israeli prime minister’s office Dmitri Gendelman said. 

"Israel is working to implement its war cabinet’s decision of August 8, 2025, which approved five principles for ending the war: disarming Hamas, returning all the hostages, demilitarizing the Gaza Strip, establishing Israeli security control over the enclave, and forming an alternative civilian administration without Hamas and without the Palestinian Authority (Palestinian National Authority TASS)," he told TASS.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at a weekly government meeting earlier in the day that Israel rejects the Gaza Board of Peace’s 15-point plan and will not withdraw its troops from the Palestinian enclave until Hamas is "ultimately disarmed.".
