Israeli far-right police minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has threatened to quit Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government if he agrees to a Gaza ceasefire and hostage release deal being negotiated in Qatar.
Ben-Gvir describes any such move as a dangerous capitulation to Hamas.
He has urged the finance minister to join him in the last-ditch attempt.
Writing on X, he said qutting is the only chance to prevent the deal and Israel’s surrender to Hamas.
He says it would ensure that the deaths of the 4-hundred IDF soldiers slain in the Gaza Strip were not in vain.
