Israel and Hamas have agreed on a ceasefire deal that could bring an end to the fighting in Gaza. The deal’s first phase aims to release remaining hostages held by Hamas in exchange for Israel’s release of Palestinian prisoners. Israelis and Palestinians are celebrating this breakthrough.
However, many key details remain unclear. For now, only the initial agreement has been confirmed. Disarmament plans and full Israeli withdrawal from Gaza are set to be discussed in future negotiations.
