Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir has called on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to recall the delegation engaged in indirect ceasefire negotiations with Hamas in Qatar. This demand follows the killing of five Israeli soldiers in Gaza and an attempted kidnapping of an Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldier, which resulted in the soldier's death. Ben Gvir criticized the ongoing talks, arguing that negotiating with Hamas, which he described as a "murderous terrorist organization," only encourages further kidnappings and strengthens the group. He urged Netanyahu to halt ceasefire discussions and instead pursue a strategy aimed at weakening Hamas, including expelling Gaza residents and expanding Jewish settlements in Gaza. Ben Gvir warned that continued negotiation efforts would embolden Hamas militants to carry out more abductions, as evidenced by the recent fatal incident involving an IDF soldier.
