Israeli Minister Ally Ben Gvir Resigns: Israel’s hardline National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir has resigned from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government in protest against the ceasefire agreement with Hamas in Gaza. His party, Jewish Power (Otzma Yehudit), strongly condemned the agreement, calling the ceasefire a “surrender to Hamas”.
The party claims that the deal amounts to “the release of hundreds of terrorists” in Gaza and the Israeli military’s “abandonment of its war achievements”. However, the party has clarified that it will not try to topple Netanyahu’s government.
impact on alliance
Ben Gvir’s resignation is likely to destabilize the Netanyahu government’s coalition, but it will neither break the coalition nor have any impact on the ceasefire. Despite this, Ben Gvir has indicated that his party could return to government if the war in Gaza restarts.
Hamas and the release of hostages
Hamas has released a list of three hostages whom it plans to release on Sunday. This may clear the way for implementing Gaza Ceasefire in Gaza. However, Israel had said that the fighting would continue until the list of hostages was handed over as per the agreement. There has been no official response from Israel on this yet. There was a delay of about two hours in implementing the ceasefire.
