Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will convene an emergency meeting today to discuss possible Israeli reactions to Hamas violations of the first phase of the Gaza ceasefire agreement, according to Hebrew-language media.
The meeting will come as Hamas appears to have handed over last night additional remains of a slain hostage who has already been returned, rather than the body of one of the remaining 13 hostages.
If that suspicion is confirmed, it will be a week since Hamas has handed over a body. Israel insists that the terror group is dragging its feet on the requirement of the ceasefire that came into effect on October 10.
Israel is considering moving the Yellow Line that divides Gaza in two, placing more territory under IDF control, according to reports.
Netanyahu was in court this morning for a hearing in his corruption trial.
