Far-right Israeli minister calls potential Gaza ceasefire ‘serious error’

Far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has voiced opposition to the proposed ceasefire-hostage deal between Israel and Hamas, describing it as a “serious error," Israeli media reported.

“It’s a serious error that neither serves the goals and interests of the State of Israel in the war nor [brings] the return of the hostages because, in the end, it is a partial deal,” Smotrich told the Haredi radio station Kol Barama, as reported by Ynet.
