Israel’s war cabinet plans to support new proposal to obtain hostages' release: Report

Israel’s war cabinet plans to back a new proposal to obtain the release of hostages held in Gaza, amid tensions with mediator Egypt and pressure from hostages family members. 

The Israeli Broadcasting Authority said Israel’s war cabinet is weighing a new plan to support.

The report comes after a forum of Israeli hostage family members released a video purporting to show the abduction and interrogation of seven female Israeli soldiers by Palestinian fighters.

Hostage talked have stalled in recent weeks and Egypt threatened to withdraw as mediator amid frustration with reports about its role in the talks.
