Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is caught in a political vise, forced to choose between accepting a ceasefire proposal and risking the collapse of his far-right government. The dilemma comes amid pressure from both international calls, led by President Biden, for a truce and the demands of far-right ministers who threaten to topple the government if the ceasefire is accepted. This situation places Netanyahu in a precarious position, balancing the need for political survival against the demands for peace and the return of hostages held in Gaza. The decision could redefine Israel's path forward, either maintaining its current hard-line stance or moving towards easing international tensions.
