"Hamas' Hostage Deal and Ceasefire Proposal: Cabinet Meeting Cut Short for Shabbat"
TL;DR Summary
The Israeli cabinet failed to reach a decision on Hamas's ceasefire demands due to a delayed meeting that ended early because of Shabbat. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu postponed the small cabinet's decision, insisting it be presented to the general cabinet, despite objections from other members. The general cabinet meeting was adjourned without a decision, and is expected to reconvene to finalize the discussion. The demands, presented by Hamas via Qatari mediators, include a proposed ceasefire and the release of Israeli hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners.
