Lebanese news outlet al-Akhbar reports that a proposal for a deal is being pursued to release 10 Palestinian prisoners for each Israeli hostage freed from Gaza, though Israel is conditioning its acceptance of the formula on who is included in the roster of inmates it would be expected to let go.

The site, which is thought to have links to Hezbollah, also reports that US mediators told Qatar they are putting pressure on Israel for a longer truce than the one-week break that took place at the end of November, including a prisoner/hostage exchange and the entry of large amounts of aid.

Israeli newspaper Haaretz, said Netanyahu’s position as prime minister will not be challenged unless members of his coalition in parliament break rank. That’s unlikely to happen any time soon, even as calls grow among the public for his removal, he said. “He still has his base, and this base will be very faithful to Netanyahu, but it’s not only about the public opinion,” Levy told Al Jazeera from Tel Aviv. “The majority in the parliament is still very solid and therefore all the talking now about replacing him is not realistic.”
“You need four members of his coalition to quit and change sides. I don’t see any of the members of the coalition doing so in the coming future. And if not, all the talking about replacing Netanyahu is quite hollow,” he said.
Levy added that beyond Netanyahu’s political future, the vast majority of the Israeli parliament continues to support the country’s war on Gaza.

Reports Say Israel Assasinated Top Hamas Official Saleh al-Arouri in Beirut @haaretzcom.
The assassination of a top Hamas official in Beirut on Tuesday was welcomed by many in Israel as a necessary, even inevitable, step in the campaign to destroy Hamas that Israel has been waging since the terror group’s brutal Oct. 7 attacks.
But that mission is fraught with contradictions. The slain Hamas official, Saleh al-Arouri, was a key strategist and liaison with its Iranian sponsors, and analysts said his death was a blow to the group. It also appeared likely, however, to put on ice any talks between Israel and Hamas over freeing more hostages taken in the group’s Oct. 7 attacks, dealing yet another setback to families waiting desperately for their loved ones to come home.
