Israeli defense minister says Gaza truce deal a 'strategic opportunity'

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant offered his support for a hostage release agreement in the first phase of a Gaza truce deal, saying it would give Israel a "strategic opportunity" to address other security challenges.

Bringing the hostages home is "the right thing to do," Gallant told foreign journalists. "Achieving an agreement is also a strategic opportunity that gives us a high chance to change the security situation on all fronts," he said.
