TOP News Brief
The US-backed Board of Peace has hardened conditions for Israeli withdrawal from Gaza following senior officials' talks with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Middle East Eye reported. The board revised its withdrawal terms after the high-level meetings, shifting its previous stance on the parameters governing Israeli military departure from the territory.
The specific details of how the conditions were altered and what additional requirements were imposed remain unclear. The development reflects pressure from Netanyahu's government during negotiations over the scope and timing of any Israeli pullout from Gaza. The Board of Peace, which backs a two-state resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, faced criticism for the revised terms.
