Vote on Gaza Cease-Fire Delayed Amid Disagreements

The Israeli government is not expected to vote on the cease-fire deal with Hamas until at least Friday, Israeli officials said, after last-minute disputes with Hamas and rifts over the agreement emerged inside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s governing coalition.

On Thursday night, Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel’s hard-line national security minister, threatened to resign and remove his party from the Israeli government if the cabinet voted to approve the provisional cease-fire deal. He offered to rejoin Mr. Netanyahu’s coalition should Israel resume its war against Hamas.

Delay until at least Monday so TSF can say it happened on his watch and claim full credit. Like Raygun.
