Haaretz: Israel and Hamas have reached an agreement on a ceasefire and the release of hostages

Israel and Hamas have reached an agreement in principle on most of the terms of the agreement regarding the ceasefire and the release of hostages. Haaretz writes this, citing a source familiar with the negotiations. As expected – writes the portal – the agreement will last for 35 days, during which all Israeli hostages will be released. In return, Israel will release Palestinian prisoners and provide humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip. According to the source, the only unresolved question is whether the deal will declare a full ceasefire, a demand from Hamas that Israel rejects. The Haaretz source added that the criteria for the release of Palestinian prisoners have already been established, but their identities are still in question. He then added that “there may be other small changes in the plan, but the main issue that needs to be resolved concerns the absolute ceasefire that Hamas insists on.”
