This is a Fox News alert. The ceasefire plan hits a snag. I'm Carmen Roberts. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's office said this morning his cabinet won't meet to approve the ceasefire hostage release deal until Hamas backs down from what it calls a last-minute crisis. Some hardliners in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition opposed the deal. Fox says Jonathan Savage.
The cabinet was set to ratify the deal today, with it taking effect on Sunday. The first six weeks of the truce should see around a third of hostages released in exchange for hundreds of Palestinian prisoners. Without elaborating on the problem, the prime minister's office accused Hamas of reneging on parts of the agreement to extort last-minute concessions.
President Biden spoke about the ceasefire during his farewell address to the nation last night. He also talked about his concerns for America's future. An oligarchy of extreme wealth, power and influence is taking shape in the country, President Biden warned in his final Oval Office address. That literally threatens our entire democracy, our basic rights and freedoms.
and a fair shot for everyone to get ahead. President Biden also says he worries about an emerging tech industrial complex and an erosion of fact-checking on social media.
