Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, head of the Religious Zionism party, has summoned members of his faction for an “urgent” consultation, Hebrew media reports.

The meeting is said to focus on the state of the war, as troops pull out of Khan Younis and negotiations for a ceasefire continue.

Smotrich has been a strong opponent of lifting the military pressure on Gaza.
