US Secretary of State Antony Blinken confirmed on Tuesday that Israel has agreed to withdrawals of IDF forces from Gaza as outlined in a recent mediators' proposal to move closer to a ceasefire agreement with Hamas. The agreement specifies the schedule and locations of IDF withdrawals from Gaza, with Israel's commitment to comply.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly expressed reservations about withdrawing from strategic military assets such as the Philadelphi corridor and the Netzarim corridor. However, Blinken emphasized that Israel had agreed to the proposed plan for withdrawal.
