The Israeli military has withdrawn to a 'yellow line' in Gaza, marking the first stage of a three-stage withdrawal under Donald Trump's peace plan. The move has given Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu room for manoeuvre, but also created tension between his far-right coalition partners and his American allies. The yellow line, which leaves Israel in control of about 53% of Gaza, is seen as a temporary boundary, but Netanyahu's allies hope it will become the de facto border. The next stage of negotiations will focus on resolving difficult issues, including the transfer of power in Gaza and the disarmament of Hamas. Netanyahu has said that the war will not end until Hamas is dismantled, but Israeli commentators believe that the real decisions are being made in Washington.
