Jerusalem, Nov 27 (AP) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's security Cabinet has approved a ceasefire deal with Hezbollah, clearing the way for the truce to take effect.
Netanyahu's office said the plan was approved by a 10-1 margin. The late-night vote came shortly before President Joe Biden was expected to announced details of the deal in Washington.
