Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday rejected the US-backed 15-point Gaza peace plan, insisting no military withdrawal until Hamas is completely disarmed. "Israel rejects the 15-point document," Netanyahu said, adding that disarmament must be genuine, not fictitious. The plan, endorsed by Hamas in late July, proposes the group hand over weapons to a Palestinian body in return for an Israeli pullout. Hamas has linked disarmament to a full Israeli withdrawal and end to operations. Separately, Netanyahu said Iran would not get nuclear weapons, with or without a deal.
