Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has delayed a cabinet meeting that was set to vote on the peace deal with Hamas, citing Hamas' alleged reneging on parts of the agreement. Netanyahu stated that the meeting will only proceed once all elements of the deal are accepted by Hamas. Despite Netanyahu's claims, Hamas officials have denied retracting any parts of the ceasefire agreement. The delay comes amid domestic political pressure from right-wing members of Netanyahu's coalition government who oppose any deal with Hamas. The conflict, which began in October 2023, has resulted in significant casualties on both sides.
