Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on Thursday that a 'last minute crisis' with Hamas was hindering Israeli approval of a long-awaited agreement to pause the fighting in the Gaza Strip and release dozens of hostages. Israeli airstrikes have resulted in the deaths of dozens of individuals across the war-torn territory.
Netanyahu's office stated that the Cabinet will not convene to approve the agreement until Hamas resolves the crisis, alleging that Hamas has reneged on parts of the agreement in an attempt to secure further concessions.
