Ten coalition lawmakers have signed a letter expressing their opposition to a potential hostage-ceasefire deal, the Kan public broadcaster reports.

The signatories calling a potential agreement an “immoral step” include seven members of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party.

The letter urges the premier to “not cross the most basic moral lines, do not endanger Israel’s security.”

The signatories are Likud’s Amit Halevi, Hanoch Milwidsky, Moshe Saada, Tsega Melaku, Avihai Boaron, Dan Illouz and Moshe Pessal; Otzma Yehudit’s Limor Son Har-Melech and Yitzhak Kroizer; and Religious Zionism’s Simcha Rothman.
