Benny Gantz, a member of Israel's war cabinet, has threatened to resign if a new plan for the Gaza war is not adopted. Gantz's six-point plan includes returning hostages, demilitarizing Gaza, and international administration. He has set a June 8 deadline for its adoption. If he resigns, Prime Minister Netanyahu will be left relying on far-right allies who advocate for a hardline approach. The divide within the war cabinet comes after seven months of conflict, with Israel yet to achieve its goals of dismantling Hamas and returning hostages. Gantz's departure could impact Israel's strategy in the conflict.
