National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir criticized the proposed hostage deal between Israel and Hamas, calling it a 'reckless agreement' and threatening to resign from the coalition government. He argued that the deal would undermine the war's achievements and fail to secure the release of all remaining hostages. Ben-Gvir stated that his faction would only rejoin the coalition if military operations resumed with the goal of achieving decisive victory. Prior to his announcement, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's confidant, Natan Eshel, revealed that Ben-Gvir has already resigned from the government.
