National security minister of Israel threatens resignation over ceasefire agreement
Israel’s National Security Minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, has threatened to leave Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government if a ceasefire deal with Hamas is approved, following over 460 days of conflict in Gaza. Ben-Gvir strongly criticized the proposed agreement and stated that his far-right Otzma Yehudit party would withdraw from the coalition if it proceeds. If both his party and another key supporter pull out, Netanyahu's government could lose its majority in the Knesset.
Opposition parties have pledged to back Netanyahu if the ceasefire deal progresses, according to reports. Despite his firm opposition, Ben-Gvir clarified that he does not plan to overthrow Netanyahu's government and would consider rejoining if the ceasefire collapses.
Netanyahu's Likud party issued a statement saying that any attempt to dismantle a right-wing government would result in disgrace. It also defended the ceasefire, highlighting that it would facilitate the release of hostages while ensuring long-term security for Israel.
Since October 2023, Israel's actions in Gaza have resulted in the deaths of at least 46,788 individuals, with accusations of genocide lodged against the country at the International Criminal Court. The ceasefire agreement, brokered by the United States, Egypt, and Qatar, is scheduled to last for six weeks, with ongoing discussions for the subsequent phases. However, Israel has not excluded the possibility of resuming hostilities.
