JERUSALEM: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused Hamas of backtracking on some details of a Gaza ceasefire deal on Thursday, holding up its approval by the Israeli government.
"Hamas reneges on parts of the agreement reached with the mediators and Israel in an effort to extort last minute concessions," a statement from Netanyahu said. "The Israeli cabinet will not convene until the mediators notify Israel that Hamas has accepted all elements of the agreement."
