US President Donald Trump will be "very disappointed" if Israel obstructs his 20-point Gaza reconstruction plan, a senior US official said on Thursday, according to the Times of Israel. The warning followed Netanyahu's office rejecting Hamas's approval of a disarmament proposal, saying it did not meet Israel's demands for full demilitarization.

"We're not asking Israel to do anything that isn't in the 20-point plan that they agreed to initially," the official told reporters. "If they don't, President Trump would be very, very disappointed." The official said the US intends to "hold Israel to its commitments" and "be a fair broker" after Hamas approved the disarmament plan put forward by Trump's Board of Peace.
