Member of the security cabinet and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich is sharply criticizing the emerging deal with Hamas. "This deal is a catastrophe for Israel’s national security. We will not support a surrender deal that includes the release of arch-terrorists, stops the war and undermines achievements that we obtained with much blood, as well as abandoning many hostages," declared Smotrich.
