The full Israeli cabinet will convene on Friday to vote on a ceasefire and hostage deal, a day earlier than previously suggested. The decision was made during a meeting of the 11-member Israeli security cabinet, which is currently in session to vote on the agreement.
Once the agreement is approved by the security cabinet, the full 33-member Israeli cabinet will gather at 3:30 p.m. local time (8:30 a.m. ET) to finalize the decision.
