‘Trump’s Deal Bad’: Netanyahu Faces Fiery Backlash; Hundreds Protest Ceasefire Deal in Jerusalem

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is facing intense criticism following the approval of a ceasefire deal with Hamas, which has sparked protests across Jerusalem. Thousands of demonstrators, including far-right groups, gathered to express their opposition to the deal, which they view as a concession to Hamas.
