TEL AVIV – On Tuesday,
Itamar Ben-Gvir, the
far-right Israeli Minister of National Security, threatened to withdraw from the
government due to any attempt to conclude an “unaccounted” agreement with Hamas
to recover Israeli captives in Gaza, Al-Mamlaka TV reported.

“Unaccounted agreement = dismantling the government,”
Ben-Gvir posted on X amid media reports that Israel is considering, through
Qatari and Egyptian mediation, a long-term cessation of its military operations
against Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
In light of this news,
Ben-Gvir and
Bezalel Smotrich, the
Israeli Finance Minister, expressed their anger at being excluded from
Netanyahu’s mini-council responsible for making decisions regarding the war.
They demanded that Israeli military operations not be
stopped and that
resettlement be resumed in Gaza, from which Israel withdrew in
2005. Netanyahu ruled out rebuilding Jewish settlements there, but he says that
Gaza will be under Israeli security control after the war.
