The Biden administration is reportedly shocked by reports that Israel plans to delay the approval of a critical hostage deal by one day, potentially complicating its implementation.
According to Channel 12, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu intends to convene a cabinet meeting to vote on the deal’s approval on Shabbos, instead of Friday as initially expected. The report indicates that time constraints will prevent both a security cabinet vote and a full cabinet vote from being held before Shabbos begins on Friday, pushing the latter to Motzei Shabbos.
Following the cabinet’s approval, Israeli law requires a 24-hour period for potential High Court of Justice petitions against the agreement before the deal can be implemented.
The White House is said to be “fuming” over the decision, Channel 12 reported, warning that the additional day could introduce further complications to the already delicate negotiations.

The white house is “fuming”- ya because Biden wants go leave with 1 accomplishment: now he will leave with none.
Ya gotta love it
What goes around comes around Mr. Obama and Mr. Biden
Biden gonna go with his head between his legs hahaha
Don’t let Biden take credit for anything. The hostages would have been home long ago if not for Biden’s policies. Every time it started to look promising, he came out with negative statements against Israel, so Hamas thought they could get more.
JB sorry about that. And oh don’t let the door hit you on the way out
And also don’t trip on the door ledge
