The viability of the Israel-Hamas ceasefire is being called into question after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused Hamas of reneging on parts of the agreement announced Wednesday. Netanyahu says his cabinet will not meet to approve the agreement until the issue is resolved.

The deal was set to be ratified by Israeli Cabinet on Thursday. But Netanyahu says, without specifying, that Hamas has gone back on several parts of the ceasefire agreement at the last minute.

The United States, Egypt and Qatar have spent the past year trying to mediate an end to the war sparked by Hamas' attack on Israel in October 2023. A deal has finally been reached.
