Israeli far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich warns that he will not support a deal in Gaza that halts the war, stating that Israel should 'open the gates of hell' on the Palestinian territory. Smotrich opposes releasing dangerous terrorists, halting the war, and abandoning hostages still in captivity. He calls for intensified efforts to secure and cleanse the Gaza Strip, taking control of humanitarian aid to prevent its exploitation by Hamas. The comments come as negotiations for a Gaza ceasefire and hostage release deal continue.
