Far-right National Security Minister says he is working to end Israel’s involvement in talks for a hostage-ceasefire deal in Gaza.
“Working to end the negotiations with Hamas,” he posts on X. “A country where they murder six hostages in cold blood does not conduct negotiations with the killers, but ends the talks, stops the transfer of fuel and electricity and crushes them until they collapse.”
“Continuous talks just spur them to create more and more terror, including in Judea and Samaria,” he says, referring to the West Bank by its biblical names.
