Israeli politicians split over Iran ceasefire deal
Israeli political figures have responded sharply and at times inconsistently to the ceasefire agreement with Iran, reflecting deep divides within the country's leadership and public discourse. Here's how some key figures reacted: Bezalel Smotrich, finance minister: Praised Israel's gains against Iran and signalled a shift in focus: "Now with all our might to Gaza, to complete the job." Avigdor Liberman, former defence and foreign minister: "The final chord is particularly jarring and bitter. Instead of an unconditional surrender, the world enters into difficult and tedious negotiations, with the ayatollahs' regime having no intention of giving up." Yair Golan, MK, left-wing: Called for a thorough review of the ceasefire deal, stating, "All the hostages must be returned, end the war in Gaza, and stop the regime coup once and for all." Yair Lapid, opposition leader: Urged a pivot to Gaza: "And now Gaza. This is the moment to close there as well. To return the hostages, to end the war. Israel needs to start rebuilding." Limor Son Har-Melech, MK, far-right, Jewish Power party: Rejected the ceasefire, warning: "Without the overthrow of the regime, the threat has not been removed." Tzvi Kreuzer, MK, far-right, Jewish Power party: Opposed any pause in hostilities with Iran: "No to a ceasefire - fire without a break." Itzik Bonsel, right-wing activist: Raised doubts over the government's messaging: "For years it has been said that Iran is an existential threat. Is it possible that after 11 days of fighting, that this threat has been removed? No Israeli official said so."

Qatar warns Israel against using Iran truce to escalate in Gaza
Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani said on Tuesday that Doha was working to restart Gaza ceasefire talks in the coming days and cautioned Israel against using its truce with Iran as a pretext to intensify attacks on the besieged enclave. 'We are still continuing our efforts, and God willing, we will try to look for an opportunity during the next two days for having indirect negotiations between the two parties,' Al Thani said during a joint press conference with his Lebanese counterpart. He added, 'We hope that the Israeli side will not exploit the ceasefire with Iran to unleash what it wants to unleash on Gaza and continue its bombing of [the Strip].
