Israel and Hamas agree to ceasefire deal to pause Gaza war and release some hostages, mediators say

^{Published on 2025-01-16 02:00:57 - MSN}

Israel and Hamas agreed to a ceasefire deal, mediators announced Wednesday, pausing a devastating 15-month war in the Gaza Strip and raising the possibility of winding down the the deadliest and most destructive fighting between the bitter enemies.

Israel and Hamas have agreed to a ceasefire deal that will temporarily halt the ongoing conflict in Gaza, according to mediators from Qatar and the U.S. The agreement includes the release of some hostages held by Hamas, with the ceasefire set to begin within the next 24 hours. This deal marks a significant step towards de-escalation, aiming to provide relief to the civilian population in Gaza and potentially pave the way for further negotiations. The specifics of the hostage release and the duration of the ceasefire were not detailed in the initial announcement, but it represents a critical moment in the efforts to address the humanitarian crisis and the broader conflict.
