Keys to the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas
The plan, divided into three phases, provides for an imminent return of 33 Israeli hostages. In exchange, Israel will release more than 1,000 Palestinian prisoners
The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has pointed out, after the agreement in principle reached with Hamas on Wednesday was made public, that there are still loose ends to be resolved before a truce is signed to enforce a ceasefire after 15 months of conflict in Gaza. The Israeli government is expected to debate and vote on the proposal on Thursday, so there may yet be modifications to the agreement drawn up during negotiations in Doha between representatives of the party-militia and Israel, with mediation from the United States and Egypt.
