JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel’s security Cabinet has recommended approval of a ceasefire deal after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed an agreement had been reached that would pause the 15-month war with Hamas in Gaza and release dozens of hostages held by militants there. Mediators Qatar and the U.S. announced the ceasefire on Wednesday, but the deal hung in limbo for more than a day as Netanyahu insisted there were last-minute snags. After the recommendation Friday, the deal now goes to the full Cabinet of ministers for final sign-off. It is expected to OK the ceasefire. It could start as soon as Sunday.
