Israel’s war cabinet will discuss proposals for a Gaza truce, prepared by Egypt, today, Al Jazeera reports.
Egypt had suggested a seven to 10-day truce where all civilians would be released in exchange for Palestinian prisoners.
It also proposed the release of all female soldiers in exchange for Palestinian prisoners — that would get another seven-day ceasefire, and then a month of negotiations to discuss the release of all military personnel held by Hamas in exchange for a lot more prisoners and Israel pulling back to Gaza’s borders.
However, Al Jazeera said there are a lot of political considerations in Israel. The cabinet is not particularly united. There’s one minister criticising the government for having a large ground operation instead of air strikes, resulting in the deaths of 17 soldiers since Friday.
