Israeli cabinet approves ceasefire but deeply divided: Can Netanyahu survive? | DW News

The Israeli government has approved a six-week ceasefire in Gaza. The first of three stages to the agreement is planned to begin on Sunday morning, when fighting in the Gaza Strip is set to stop at 8:30 local time. Israeli troops will then pull out of populated areas. Hamas is also set to begin releasing a total of 33 Israeli hostages, while Israel will free hundreds of Palestinian prisoners in return. Aid agencies are planning to surge vitally needed supplies into the besieged strip once the hostilities cease. 00:00 Israeli cabinet approves deal 00:39 DW's Konstantin Eggert reports from Jerusalem 04:56 DW speaks with Mairav Zonszein, Senior Analyst for Israel and the Palestinian territories at the International Crisis Group For more news go to: http://www.dw.com/en/ For more news, analysis and background information on the German election 2025 go to our dedicated page: https://www.dw.com/en/german-election-2025/t-70794502 Follow DW on social media: ►Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dwnews ►TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dwnews ►Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/deutschewellenews/ ►Twitter: https://twitter.com/dwnews Für Videos in deutscher Sprache besuchen Sie: https://www.youtube.com/dwdeutsch Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/user/deutschewelleenglish?sub_confirmation=1 #IsraelHamasWar #Israel #Gaza
