Israel and Hamas reach deal on Gaza ceasefire and hostage release, Hamas and Qatari officials say

^{Published on 2025-01-15 16:40:40 - MSN}

Israel and Hamas agreed to a ceasefire Wednesday, a deal that will end 15 months of fighting in Gaza, senior Hamas and Qatari officials said.

Israel and Hamas have agreed to a ceasefire in Gaza, which includes the release of hostages. This deal, mediated by Qatar, Egypt, and the United States, aims to halt the ongoing conflict temporarily. Under the agreement, Hamas will release 50 hostages, primarily women and children, in exchange for a four-day pause in fighting. Israel, in turn, will release 150 Palestinian prisoners, also focusing on women and minors. The ceasefire is set to begin within the next 24 hours, with the possibility of extending the pause by an additional day for every 10 more hostages released. This arrangement also allows for increased humanitarian aid to enter Gaza, addressing the dire needs of the population amidst the conflict.
