 As per recent updates, Israel is currently deliberating on the proposed ceasefire plan.

Following the latest developments from the talks held in Paris earlier this week, Israel's military leaders have been updated on the ongoing discussions about the ceasefire deal in Gaza.

At present, police intervened to disperse protests demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Tel Aviv.

Mounted officers intervened as demonstrators tried to march towards Democracy Square.

The ongoing talks in Paris form part of negotiations aimed at securing a ceasefire and facilitating the release of prisoners.

As per this agreement, Israel will also release Palestinian detainees held in Israeli prisons.

This week, the Israeli war cabinet received updates on the Paris talks, which involved representatives from Egypt, Qatar, and the United States.

We're working hard to come up with a different plan for releasing prisoners," Mr. Netanyahu tweeted.

"That's why I dispatched a delegation to Paris - and tonight, we'll discuss the next steps in negotiations."

Subsequently, it was revealed that Israel would dispatch a delegation to Qatar for further talks this week.

Before delving into the rewrite, I must highlight that my knowledge is current up to January 2022, and I'm unable to provide real-time updates or information beyond that date.

Back on October 7th, there was a notable uptick in anti-government protests across Israel, which had been ongoing even before the Hamas attacks. These demonstrations were fueled by a deep-seated resentment towards Prime Minister Netanyahu and his administration, which had been brewing for well over a year.

However, the unrest witnessed on that particular Saturday in October saw law enforcement taking more aggressive actions than usual.

Many of the protesters are feeling disheartened by the ongoing conflict in Gaza, fearing that their government's priorities lie more in defeating Hamas than in addressing broader issues, such as the release of prisoners.

The Ministry of Justice has launched an investigation into a troubling incident captured on video, where an officer allegedly used excessive force against a protester, leading to injuries.

Opposition leader Yair Lapid has criticized the heavy-handed approach of the police, particularly in their response to demonstrators gathering outside the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) headquarters. He emphasized that the right to protest should not be met with such forceful measures.

Reports indicate at least 21 arrests and numerous injuries resulting from the clashes.

Beyond the anti-government protests, there were also gatherings of relatives of Palestinian prisoners in the city, drawing attention to the urgent need for diplomatic solutions and the repatriation of their loved ones.

Last week, Israeli media outlets highlighted significant advancements in talks concerning prisoner exchanges and ceasefire arrangements held in Paris. David Barnea, the chief of Israeli intelligence, convened with representatives from Egypt, Qatar, and the United States in the French capital last Wednesday. It's been reported that they successfully crafted a framework for further negotiations, which was promptly presented to Israel's war cabinet later that Wednesday evening. According to Israeli media sources, the war cabinet has greenlit the dispatch of a delegation to Qatar. Their mission: to sustain discussions on a prospective deal entailing a week-long ceasefire, contingent upon the release of numerous Palestinian detainees currently held in Israeli custody. However, Israel's National Security Advisor, Zacky Hanegbi, urged caution during a televised interview on Thursday evening, emphasizing, "While these agreements represent progress, they do not signify the end of the conflict." Earlier, a senior Palestinian official familiar with the negotiations conveyed to the BBC that there had been minimal tangible progress in Paris. The official further alleged that negotiators had manipulated information to intensify pressure on Hamas. As of now, Hamas has refrained from offering any commentary on the recent updates regarding potential agreements.

Amidst the ongoing conflict and airstrikes in Gaza, Israeli media has provided updates on the current situation.

In a recent announcement, Prime Minister Netanyahu revealed plans to seek approval from his cabinet for operations in Rafah, located at the southern tip of Gaza. This area is currently home to approximately 1.2-1.5 million people, many of whom are trapped due to the violence. The intensified Israeli airstrikes are posing additional challenges to relief efforts in the region.

Warnings from relief agencies and several Western governments highlight the serious repercussions of attacks on Rafah.

UNRWA, the United Nations agency aiding Palestinian refugees, has ceased aid shipments to northern Gaza due to the looting of convoys. Additionally, one of its trucks was caught in Israeli gunfire on February 5th.

Concerns about the rising risk of famine in Gaza have been raised by the United Nations, with distressing footage showing residents in the northern mountains resorting to standing aboard trains in search of food.

Tragically, local media reports indicate that a two-month-old Palestinian infant died of hunger at Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City last Friday.

Hamas' health ministry has reported that at least 29,600 Palestinians have lost their lives in Israeli attacks, with the grim possibility of discovering thousands more bodies buried under the rubble in Gaza.

In response to attacks on southern Israeli communities near the Gaza border on October 7th, Israel has reiterated its commitment to dismantling Hamas. However, this resolve has come at a significant cost, resulting in the deaths of approximately 1,200 Israelis, predominantly civilians, and the displacement of around 250,000 Gazans.
