**Israel's Cabinet Greenlights Gaza Ceasefire and Hostage Exchange Agreement**

Israel's Security Cabinet moves to establish a ceasefire with Hamas, facilitating the exchange of hostages and prisoners amid ongoing conflict.


The Israeli government has formally approved a ceasefire agreement with Hamas, set to commence on Sunday, following extensive discussions within its Security Cabinet. The deal will initiate the release of 33 Israeli hostages held in Gaza, in exchange for a significant number of Palestinian prisoners, amid ongoing violence. While Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office maintains that the agreement aligns with the war objectives, dissent exists within the Cabinet, particularly from far-right members opposed to the terms. As negotiations unfold, concerns rise among hostage families about future phases of the agreement, which include the potential for troop withdrawals and extensive humanitarian aid deliveries into Gaza.

The deal’s initial phase involves the release of Israeli hostages, which includes civilians and specific demographics, while ensuring aid is delivered to the besieged Gazan population. Nevertheless, the ongoing violence continues to escalate, with more Palestinian casualties reported post-agreement announcement, raising questions about the effectiveness and longevity of the ceasefire.

As the military actions persist despite the diplomatic efforts, both the Israeli public and the international community watch closely for the tangible impacts of the ceasefire on the humanitarian crisis and the prospects for peace in the region.
